Nyctea Technologies, a spin-off from Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden, has developed a chemical-electrical method known as “electrified purification” that simplifies the process of drug manufacturing. This method uses a conductive polymer, which responds to electric signals, to replace complex buffer-based approaches in downstream purification. Nyctea’s technique boosts yields, speeds up the process, and reduces raw material usage and water consumption. The firm is currently partnering with AstraZeneca to test this process in large-scale pharmaceutical production.
