Amino acids are often referred to as the building blocks of life. As a core constituent of proteins, amino acids play a vital role in a range of biochemical processes that govern our metabolism and health. When these amino acids are manufactured and purified to the highest quality standards, they become an essential ingredient in countless products used across areas including cell culture.
As building blocks of proteins, amino acids are key components of cell culture media used in the production of biopharmaceuticals such as therapeutic proteins or viral vectors.
Evonik has been one of the world’s leading and most trusted global suppliers of highly purified amino acids for more than 60 years. Our reliable manufacturing network with production sites in Europe and Asia and value-added services for amino acids, salts and derivatives make us a trusted global leader in the industry.
