Colimycin, a peptide derivative has been successfully used as an antibiotic drug in lung infections. Already, there are around 45 peptide-based drugs in the market treating a vast spectrum of diseases. Most common uses of peptides are as insulin in the management of diabetes and in treating hyper tension

Jupiter Bioscience synthesizes peptides using peptide building blocks manufactured in-house. Due to the in-house supply of aminoacid derivatives, cost of manufacturing peptides is reduced significantly.
