Every drop count, and so does every project. At PREMIER, we are committed to leading the change towards a cleaner and safer future. 🌍💧 This World Environment Day, we want to highlight how our project is making a difference. By developing tools to identify and predict the environmental impacts of human medicines, exploring greener drug design, and creating a comprehensive database of physicochemical and environmental properties, we aim to reduce water pollution and protect our environment. Here are some of the initiatives we are using in PREMIER to identify and reduce pollution: 🌱 Innovation in Contaminant Management: We use advanced technology to detect APIs (active pharmaceutical ingredients) in river waters.  🌱 Industry Collaboration: Exploring the options to integrate environmental considerations earlier within drug development. 🌱 Health and Environment: Our initiatives protect both aquatic ecosystems and the health of local communities. Join us on this journey towards a future where every drop counts. Together, we can reduce pollution and preserve water for future generations. 💧 #WorldEnvironmentDay #Sustainability #Innovation #WaterManagement #PREMIERProject #WaterProtection #WorldEnvironmentDay 

Dear LinkedIn community, Today, I want to shed light on an important aspect of our journey towards a sustainable and eco-friendly future. Let's talk about Triton™ X-100, a widely used non-ionic surfactant and emulsifier with various applications, such as viral inactivation, cell lysis, and protein solubilization. While it has served us well in many industries, it is essential to address its environmental impact. Triton™ X-100 belongs to the substance group Phenol ethoxylates, which has been identified as hazardous to the aquatic environment and a known endocrine disruptor. Recognizing the potential risks, the European Chemicals Agency took action and added Phenol ethoxylates, including Triton™ X-100, to the Candidate List of Substances of Very High Concern in 2012. But this story doesn't end there! Our collective determination to safeguard our environment and protect future generations led to groundbreaking progress. In 2017, the European Parliament took a momentous step by approving the REACH vote to include Triton™ X-100 in Annex XIV of the REACH regulation. This significant move set a sunset date of January 4th, 2021, effectively banning its use and sale in the EU, except for those with an exemption certificate. As professionals, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders, we hold the power to drive change and promote a healthier planet. The transformation we seek requires us to embrace sustainability as a core value and make responsible choices in our business practices. Let us be inspired by the progress made with Triton™ X-100 and use this as a reminder of the positive impact that comes from recognizing environmental challenges and taking decisive actions. Together, we can support research, development, and adoption of eco-friendly alternatives. By prioritizing sustainability in our products and processes, we can create a cleaner, greener, and more prosperous future. So, as we navigate our professional journeys, let us remember that every small step counts. Let us innovate and collaborate, working towards a world where businesses thrive without compromising our planet's well-being. By aligning our values with sustainable practices, we can pave the way for a brighter and more sustainable future. #Sustainability #Innovation #EnvironmentalResponsibility #GreenFuture #REACHRegulation
