Integrated Chemistry Services
At BioDuro, we provide drug discovery chemistry services that combine depth in medicinal chemistry synthesis, computational chemistry applications, analytical method development, and scale-up support. From hit identification to candidate selection and scale-up, our chemists support small molecule drug discovery services as well as peptides, ADC and other novel modalities. By uniting in silico drug discovery, computer-aided drug design, and bench-scale synthesis, we help clients move from concept to IND faster.
Services Overview
Medicinal Chemistry – Our medicinal chemistry CRO team provides expertise in medicinal chemistry synthesis and lead optimization. We accelerate medicinal chemistry drug discovery programs through SAR expansion and structure-guided design.
Parallel Synthesis – Our parallel synthesis platform supports small molecule drug discovery services with high-throughput library design. Rapid SAR expansion enables iterative discovery campaigns.
Peptide Chemistry – We provide custom peptide synthesis CRO services, including linear, cyclic, and conjugated peptides. Our scale-up capabilities ensure support from discovery through preclinical stages.
Computational Chemistry – Our computational chemistry applications combine computer-aided drug design and in silico drug discovery. These tools accelerate candidate prioritization, reduce risk, and enhance medicinal chemistry design.
Synthetic Chemistry – We offer synthetic chemistry services focused on route scouting, building-block synthesis, and analog generation. Our expertise supports medicinal chemistry synthesis projects and custom small molecule chemistry.
Analytical Chemistry – Our analytical chemistry team provides analytical method CRO development, including method validation, impurity profiling, and stability testing. Ensure your compounds meet the highest quality standards with our analytical chemistry services.
Scale-Up Chemistry – Our scale-up chemistry services deliver flexible process development solutions CRO support. From gram to kilogram scale, we provide non-GMP compound synthesis and kilo lab production to transition smoothly from discovery to preclinical development.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What modalities can BioDuro’s chemistry team support?
BioDuro’s chemistry team supports a broad range of therapeutic modalities. In addition to traditional small molecules, the team has established extensive capabilities in emerging modalities, including peptides, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) and others.
How is AI integrated into BioDuro’s chemistry workflows?
AI is used to enhance efficiency and decision-making across the discovery chemistry workflow, including AI-assisted retrosynthetic route design, virtual library screening, and compound prioritization. In addition, BioDuro is working with strategic partners to apply AI to peptide chemistry.
Does BioDuro offer scale-up support for preclinical studies?
Yes. The chemistry team can scale synthetic routes from milligram to multi-hundred-gram quantities to supply animal studies. Projects requiring further scale can transition smoothly to the in-house Process Chemistry and CMC teams through an internal technology transfer workflow.
