Drug Discovery Advances Inextricably Linked to Specialty Gases
The development and commercialisation of new medical drugs is a complex and costly process, but increasing pressure is being placed on drug companies to accelerate the timeline from discovery of new drugs, through to clinical trials and then to their release onto the market. The pharmaceutical industry continues to demand ever more advanced products aimed at improving health and the quality of modern-day life.
