Nature Inspired Screening Products
Renewed interest in natural products and natural product-derived compounds as a source for new leads in drug discovery programs has been occurring in the recent past. This attention has been attributed to a number of factors that include: diminished productivity in the pharmaceutical industry; unfulfilled promises of combinatorial chemistry technology; the history of natural sources to provide drug leads and products. This latter statement is supported by analysis claiming that 61% of 877 small molecule drugs introduced worldwide during the period 1981-2002 can be traced to, or were inspired by, natural products [J Natural Products, 66,1022(2003)].
In Natural Product Reports article about research trends and industry survey, TimTec is identified as one of the major suppliers that offer broad range of diverse natural products including pure natural compounds, natural product derivatives, and plant extracts available from stock.
