Novalead: A better candidate
Our expert chemists thoughtfully apply our resources — including a proprietary DNA-encoded library — to refine and optimize the compound, perfecting the profile no matter how time-sensitive or complex the challenge.
Organometallic and heterocyclic chemistry
Synthesis of focused libraries, standards and reference materials. Unique expertise in building sophisticated scaffolds with complex and diverse chemistry.
Process development
Our chemists design safe, shorter, replicable and scalable synthetic routes and processes, implementing them rapidly to reduce bottlenecks, capital investment and the cost of goods.
High-throughput synthesis
We use rapid synthesis to shorten the design-make-test cycle. We are equipped and trained to provide focused libraries in one week to validate a hypothesis quickly.
PROTACs
We offer the latest PROTAC (PROteolysis TArgeting Chimeras) synthetic technology to prepare Targeted Protein Degradation (TPD), using event-based target activity to redefine the principles of classical drug discovery.
Photo- and electro-chemistry
The Novalix chemistry platform provides both photochemistry, an increasingly viable synthetic strategy to produce active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), and electrochemistry, the scale and environmental benefit of which combines well with flow chemistry.
Flow chemistry
A powerful, safe innovative tool for process and discovery chemistry, now integrated with AI, that reduces the environmental footprint and enables hard-to-scale batch processes.
Analytical chemistry and purification
Empower your research with integrated analytical chemistry and purification solutions. From NMR and LC-MS to SFC and GC-MS, we deliver precision, quality control, and efficiency for small molecules, peptides, PROTACs, and complex compounds.
DNA-encoded libraries
DNA-encoded libraries (DELs) represent a novel and robust approach to hit identification and rapid lead generation that can provide access to a broad set of diverse chemotypes for a significantly lower cost than high-throughput screening (HTS). Currently, the number of DEL-enabled drug discovery programs continues to rise. The fully integrated NovaDEL platform, transferred from an alliance and license deal with a major pharmaceutical company, is built on the concept of capturing and tracking all experimental information as it is generated from library synthesis through affinity selection.
Compound Management
Compound management plays a central role in the success of drug discovery research, where precise handling and traceability of samples is critical to ensure accuracy of results. With over 20 years of experience, we ensure the highest standards in sample handling and traceability.
