PharmaSynth 20 years!

On June 29th PharmaSynth AS celebrated 20 years since its establishment. During these years the Company has implemented syntheses of numerous PET and SPECT tracer precursors, standards and other chemicals, shipped to customers around the world. Our clients have been universities, hospitals, research centres and pharmaceutical companies in the field of PET/SPECT imaging. Today we can synthesise more than 150 PET or SPECT related precursors, reference standards or auxiliary reagents. We regularly export to more than 20 countries with major markets in Europe, North America and Japan. 

            We would like to thank all our clients for the trust in us to supply PET/SPECT tracer precursors and reference standards. We will continue to be a reliable supplier of high-quality speciality chemicals for radiolabelling.
