About J-Star
Founded in 1996, J-STAR Research, Inc. is a contract chemistry organization serving as an outsourcing partner for the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. Founded by Dr. Andrew Thompson, formerly of Merck Research Laboratories in The Department of Process Research, J-Star has become a leading provider of services in organic synthesis for a variety of pharmaceutical clients globally.
J-STAR was formed to provide high quality chemistry and process research services to the chemical community. For complex synthetic organic chemistry projects, especially those with an uncertain development future, it can be difficult to find a nimble and reliable chemistry provider willing to take on new challenges. The company is privately held, which allows us to continue our focus on providing high quality chemistry services.
The company started operations in the Enterprise Development Center, a small business incubator, which provided 1500 sq. ft. of space owned by the New Jersey Institute of Technology. Located near downtown Newark, the original facility was adjacent to the Rutgers/NJIT campus, allowing our chemists access to library and NMR facilities. J-STAR quickly outgrew the original space and in 1999, the company moved operations to more rural settings in central New Jersey. Currently J-STAR occupies 22,000 sq. ft. of continuous leased space located in South Plainfield, New Jersey. The company has installed 7 laboratory suites with a total of 26 fume hoods. Three lab suites are used for general laboratory projects and two are used for kilo-lab projects. We also have two isolated, limited access suites that are used for cGMP projects. We now have our own library and NMR facilities. Additional lab space is being added continuously.
J-Star's expert team of scientists and professionals coupled with solid industrial experience, a high degree of dependability, and a fully equipped laboratory ensures that all projects are delivered in full, on time and with a high degree of purity.
