High Throughput Analysis Laboratory
The HTA system integrates HPLC, MS3 , UV-DAD and 400 MHz NMR techniques by means of robotization. This system is the first one ever installed in Spain and it has been designed and created optimizing the interphases between the traditional analytical and characterization systems, in order to achieve a quick analysis and characterization of chemical collections. HTA system provides rapid and high efficient information on the structure and purity of compounds collections.

Laboratory of chemical synthesis
Multifunctional area equipped with automatic reactors to carry out the optimization of chemical processes, high pressure reactors, equipment and instruments for parallel synthesis, parallel evaporation and purification, among others.
The versatility of these areas allows the development of multiple R&D projects focused on drug discovery (traditional combinatorial chemistry, medicinal chemistry, design and preparation of chemical libraries), drug development (Galenic development and preformulation) and green chemistry (development and optimization of ecoefficient synthetic routes, formulation design for biodegradable chemical product, development of new solvent with a low toxicological profile).
