River Stone Biotech Inc. participates in DCAT 2022 conference

River Stone Biotech Inc. participates in DCAT 2022 conference and announces its ambition in becoming a global provider of substance abuse APIs.

Cambridge, April 28, 2022 – River Stone Biotech Inc.(RSB), a synthetic biology business centered around a disruptive specialty API offering and operating within the contract development and manufacturing (CDMO) space, today announced the use of its transformational technology in the manufacture of buprenorphine and other n-demethylation products including naloxone and naltrexone. The novel patent-protected technology employed will allow reliable supply of these vital APIs at much superior value – both economically and environmentally – to those available in the market today.

The technology employs a combination of state-of-the-art synthetic biology followed by other more traditional production methods; this novel approach eliminates the high cost and environmentally challenging production steps used traditionally.

RSB intends to be in full, world scale commercial production within three years and was pleased with the reception it received at select meetings during the recent DCAT New York conference when this ambition was unveiled.
