CoreLab

Farm to Pharma  R&D Partnerships Natural Products

The Pascual Pharma Open Innovation Laboratory, also known as CoreLab, was established in 2016 to invest in natural products research and commercialization. This laboratory serves as a site that brings PPC’s collaborators together in one space as a natural consequence of the work envisioned by PPC’s “Partner with Us” Campaign.

ABOUT CORELAB

CoreLab’s partnership campaign was launched in 2014 to promote awareness of PPC’s incubation platform and funding models that are designed to foster collaboration work that address the following therapeutic categories:

  1. Metabolic Syndrome
  2. Cancer
  3. Tropical Diseases

Since then, PPC has established R&D partnerships with various universities like UP, Ateneo, and Technological Institute of the Philippines through research grants totaling around 120M PHP from USAID, PCARI-CHED, and DOST-PCHRD. Building on the commercialization success of Sambong, PPC and its collaborators have developed platforms for quality control of herbal raw materials, diagnostic tools for diseases, and data analytics for complex mixtures.

Through CoreLab, PPC advocates that, together, we can put more science into the development of natural product-based medicines that are safe, efficacious, and accessible to all Filipinos from all walks of life.

Natural Products and Pharmaceutical Analysis

Are you interested in determining the composition of your herbal raw materials? We have lab-scale capabilities in raw material drying, extraction, and fractionation with material characterization using LC-MS/MS and UV. Please email us at corelab@pascualpharma.com for inquiries and include information on the type of material you are working with and the types of compounds you are looking for.


Method Development and Validation/Verification

We provide analytical method development and validation solutions via LC-MS/UV to suit your intended purpose. We can also verify existing USP methods based on LC-UV for your specific material or formulation. Please email us at corelab@pascualpharma.com for your specific regulatory needs, R&D, and GMP applications.

 

Our Tools and Methods

We work with clients to ensure test methods are appropriate for their intended use by identifying and using an appropriate scientifically valid method for each established specification.

 

Major Analytical Equipment

Ultraperformance liquid chromatograph (UPLC) with two (2) available detectors

  • Photodiode array detector (PDA)
  • Electrospray ionization − quadrupole time-of-flight − tandem mass spectrometer (ESI-QTOF-MS/MS) UV-Vis spectrophotometer (microplate reader format)

 

Quality & Accreditations

We are committed to performing quality analyses. Our quality system and procedures ensure the integrity, accuracy, precision, reliability, and timeliness of your data.
