About SingaPharm

SingaPharm is a Singapore based biotech company that has developed a disposable procedure for the processing of plasma proteins. SingaPharm is currently a wholly owned subsidiary of NuSep Holdings Limited (ASX: NSP). SingaPharm’s process is based on the Pr eparative I solation by M embrane E lectrophoresis (PrIME) technology developed by NuSep. PrIME provides disposable modular processing that is ‘electronically’ driven membrane fractionation.

This process is flexible and modular compared with the large scale inflexible processing facilities of existing fractionators in US and Europe. The process has increased product yield relative to the existing process with increased product safety. The flexible nature of the PrIME technology also provides SingaPharm with access to plasma volumes that previously did not meet the criteria for larger scale processing facilities. Further, SingaPharm’s process can produce multiple plasma products in hours compared to days, which is required by the current manufacturers.
