Services

Blychem Ltd. provides the well characterised pure materials – very often not commercially available – required for Metabolic, toxicological, environmental and other health related studies carried out by Life Science Industries (CROs) , in particular isotopically labelled.

To meet these highly challenging demands, BlyChem Ltd. provides a cost-effective approach in supplying selected compounds along with the associated services. We offer our expertise acquired over the last 30 years in complex radiolabelled syntheses in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical fields, to name a few.

Carbon 14 Custom Synthesis

A complete range of simple organic intermediates to complex molecules has been synthesized using [C14]-Barium Carbonate as a source of radioactive isotope. This approach provides the flexibility and a complete control in choice of radioactive precursors material for a successful synthesis. These multistage syntheses are routinely manufactured by our chemists using specialist techniques and apparatus specifically developed for radiosynthesis.  All our products are “custom-made” to the clients’ specifications in complete confidentiality.

A full documentation is provided with all BlyChem Ltd’s products, which will include, when appropriate, an extensive range of physical techniques to fully characterise the materials, encompassing HPLC, TLC, GLC, High Field NMR, MS and GC-MS.  In most cases, our products are supplied to radiochemical purities greater than 98%.
