Institute of Biomaterial Science and Center for Regenerative Therapies (Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht) reports on High-Throughput Synthesis and Characterization of Polymer Libraries with Chemspeed’s Fully Automated SYNTHESIZER

August 4, 2014

Diffuse reflectance FTIR (DRIFT) was established as a high throughput characterization method for classic copolymer systems. Four different methyl methacrylate-based polymer libraries with styrene, N-vinylpyrrolidone, 4-vinylpyridine, or 2-carboxyethyl acrylate as comonomers were synthesized using an automated/robotic synthesizer platform, and analyzed by ¹H NMR and DRIFT. By multivariate data analysis both data sets were compared and correlations with R² between 0.9373 and 0.9971 could be achieved. By this means high throughput screening of comonomer contents of these polymer libraries was enabled.

Implementation of Large-Scale Multi-Reactor Automation for Process Development

Pharmaceuticals increasing complexity requires longer synthesis with unique processes for each step, increasing the number of experiments to develop robust sustainable processes. The time to develop these processes is getting shorter, and automation can support the growing need to efficiently perform more experiments.
