Advanced Intermediates

Pfizer's bioconversion process allows for a broad range of cost-competitive steroid intermediates

Fine Chemicals/Intermediates

Pfizer CentreSource relies on proprietary technical expertise in bioconversion operations at Pfizer's largest pharmaceutical manufacturing plant in Kalamazoo, Michigan, in the United States. Pfizer’s unique, GMP compliant process utilizes soybean-derived sterols and proprietary fermentation processes to create a very broad intermediate platform. This is done at an extremely large scale, in one process step – something that takes many other steroid manufacturers numerous chemical steps to achieve from a different basic starting material.

Pfizer CentreSource is a reliable source for both advanced steroid intermediates, and earlier “pivotal” steroid intermediates:

• Provides greater flexibility in your manufacturing strategy
• Standard offerings and the possibility of custom intermediates for specific applications
• Innovation, versatility, and quality for the most demanding API applications
• Several steroid intermediates offered with supporting US Drug Master Files for FDA markets

Similar technologies can also be utilized by Pfizer to manufacture other intermediates.
