Introducing Magebo
It’s in the Compound
In the late 19th century, chemist Felix Hoffmann, working for Bayer, aimed to find relief for his father's arthritis and stumbled upon acetylsalicylic acid. This compound, developed to create a less irritating alternative to salicylic acid, transformed into Aspirin, which became one of the most widely used medications in the world, celebrated for its pain relief and anti-inflammatory properties.
As the pharmaceutical industry evolved, the demand for versatile compounds led to the exploration of ethylene amines, such as Ethylenediamine (EDA), Diethylenetriamine (DETA), and Tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA). These compounds play a crucial role in enhancing drug formulations, ensuring the stability and efficacy of medications like Aspirin.
Today, companies like Magebo are integral to this landscape, supplying high-quality excipients and formulations that support the manufacturing of essential pharmaceuticals. This blend of serendipitous discoveries and innovative chemistry continues to shape the future of health and well-being.
