products have been completely redefined in the last decades.</b><br /> Today, the category is often thought to include any product of organic origin, whether for food or cosmetic use, <b>regardless of the fundamental role any substance taken from Nature has played, or is playing, in a drug’s discovery process and applications.</b><br /> At Indena, however, we know that only by carefully studying biological activity and underlying molecular mechanisms we can identify unprecedented principles, pathways and targets that can turn out to be <b>highly relevant for human health.</b></p> </div>

Drug Discovery</h3> <p>Aspirin, morphine, penicillin: perhaps the most famous drugs of natural origin. <br /> Natural products can either be directly used to treat human diseases, or serve as a valuable lead for discovery programs – as happened with statins, phlorizin and sphingosine analogs.<br /> Indeed, <b>about 30% of approved small-molecule drugs in the world today derive from natural products, and another 30% were designed by mimicking natural substances.</b> <br /> (D.J. Newman and G.M. Cragg, J. Nat. Prod. 2016, 79, 629−661)<br /> And while Nature provides us with a variety of different sources – from marine life to microbes – pharmacopoeias around the world show medicinal plants prevail in cardiology, neurology (especially for the central nervous system) and oncology. <br /> </p> </div> </div> <div class="image"> <div class="image-wrapper"> <img class="lazy"

therapeutic area.</b><br /> The disruptive discovery of molecules like vinblastine, vincristine, camptothecin and paclitaxel in the 1960s and 1970s completely revolutionized the approach to cancer treatment, introducing chemotherapy as an alternative to radiotherapy and surgery. <br /> <b>As a leader in natural product chemistry and in the production of paclitaxel in particular, Indena was

difference.<br></b></p><p>Indena has always upheld this serious scientific approach, and so has always had a full portfolio of products that are not only safe and effective, but also scientifically documented with proprietary studies.<br><b>We never settle on generic botanical literature or “borrow” science from others: we trust our own, and rely on ingredient-specific biomedical

Sometimes, a complex extract obtained from a vegetal biomass is itself the active ingredient. In this case, the traditional single molecule analytical approach is not suitable to define the critical quality attributes of the drug substance, while orthogonal analytical methods combined with chemometrics is the right tool.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> <section id="part_19" class="complete-text-block offset-left offset-right white bg-grid " data-bg="white" > <div class="complete-text-block-wrapper"> <div class="text-zone" data-aos="fade-up" data-aos-duration="1000"> <p class="pre-title">How our services empower your business</p> <div class="text-row"> <div class="left"> <h2>EXPERT PARTNERS = GREAT SCIENCE</h2> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> <section id="part_20" class="text-image-block offset-left offset-right white specular " data-bg="white" > <div class="text-image-block-wrapper"> <div class="text positive"> <div class="text-content" data-aos="fade-up" data-aos-duration="1000"> <h3>Process research</h3> <p><b>Our experienced team of 40 can tackle every step from process research activities – finding the most appropriate synthetic approach or identifying the right natural source to produce an active ingredient – to process development and scale-up. </b><br /> For projects based on natural biomasses, a botanical research group supports our purchasing department in the definition of a sustainable supply chain, <br /> including the collection of wild plants according to SuSo (Sustainable Sourcing) principles, domestication and cultivation of selected varieties, and agricultural programs to enhance active ingredient content. <br /> The team collaborates with a biotechnology lab for the genetic identification of natural sources as well as for the development of fermentation processes <br /> to produce active pharmaceutical ingredients or advanced intermediates.<br /> </p> </div> </div> <div class="image"> <div class="image-wrapper"> <img class="lazy" data-src="https://www.indena.com/indena_files/2020/12/expert-process-research-lg.jpg" alt="Process research"> <div class="img-loader"></div> </div> </div> </div> </section> <section id="part_21" class="text-image-block padding-bottom offset-left offset-right white " data-bg="white" > <div class="text-image-block-wrapper"> <div class="text positive"> <div class="text-content" data-aos="fade-up" data-aos-duration="1000"> <h3>Analytical research </h3> <p><b>Our CDMO activities are entrusted to a team of 22 scientists supported by state-of-the-art analytical equipment, who develop and validate appropriate analytical methods for all process, release and product stability requirements. </b><br /> <br /> The team applies GMP quality standards to the release of clinical and process validation batches as well as throughout the analytical development, taking into account data integrity compliance since the very beginning.<br /> <br /> <b>At Indena, analytical research is carried out at the highest scientific level, in order to properly manage and maintain the critical quality attributes that allow molecular structures and mixtures to closely resemble the complexity of biological ingredients.</b><br /> Our internal team also covers physical-chemical aspects of the product such as crystallinity, the shape and size of particles and polymorphism.<br /> <br /> To do all of this, we use a wide range of analytical techniques and skills, including: 400MHz and 60MHz NMR; 18 HPLC and 8 UPLC, with UV, DAD, ELSD, CAD, RI, MALLS detection; single and triple quadrupole mass spectrometers, <br /> plus two ion-traps with high resolution; 5 GC-FID plus single quadrupole MS detector; <br /> capillary electrophoresis; TGA, DT/TGA, DSC, DSC/TGA, HSM, DVS, XRPD, FTIR, NIRS; <br /> and wet- and dry-cell particle size analyzer.<br /> </p> </div> </div> <div class="image"> <div class="image-wrapper"> <img class="lazy" data-src="https://www.indena.com/indena_files/2020/12/expert-analytical-research-lg.jpg" alt="Analytical research "> <div class="img-loader"></div> </div> </div> </div> </section> <section id="part_22" class="text-image-block padding-bottom offset-left offset-right grey specular " data-bg="grey" > <div class="text-image-block-wrapper"> <div class="text"> <div class="text-content" data-aos="fade-up" data-aos-duration="1000"> <div class="pre-title">Things to watch</div> <h3>Vazguard<sup>® </sup><br /><strong><em>The shield against visceral fat</em></strong></h3> <p><p>Have you ever heard about a type of fat called visceral or intra-abdominal fat?
