With the next-to-last USP 42.2 update, a lot of changes were implemented in the Epinephrine USP monograph with the help of Transo-Pharm. Due to the high enantiomeric purity and the state-of-art HPLC test method, Transo-Pharm was in the best position to effectively support the US FDA.

It is with heavy hearts that we have to inform you of the death of our friend and longtime employee, Qiang Chen. Johnny, as we all called him, passed away totally unexpected on November 2nd, 2020 and leaves us in shock.
 
We met Johnny 1998 – at that time a BI Shanghai employee – and we learned from the beginning that he had a profound knowledge of the pharmaceutical industry. In 2004 he joined Transo-Pharm and we couldn´t have been happier that he came aboard.
 
His 16 years of solid dedication to service and his devotion to ethics and integrity made him a team member unlike any other. He was a fair and industrious manager and a man who was respected by colleagues, associates and competitors alike.
 
Needless to say, we will all miss him more than words can express. He was not just our co-worker but our good friend as well.
 
Our deepest sympathies at this sorrowful time go to his beloved wife and daughter. He will be held in high regard by all who knew him.
 
 
Sincerely

陈强
 
我们以沉痛的心情讣告: 我们的老员工，也是我们的老朋友，陈强（我们称他Johnny），不幸于2020年11月2日突然辞世，令人震惊!
我们相识于1998，那时他是德国勃林格集团上海分公司的一员。他在医药领域的博学和专业令我们影响深刻。我们非常高兴他在2004年加入了Transo-Pharm 团队。
在过去的16年里，他的乐于奉献的精神，高尚且正直的道德品行，勤奋的工作态度，使他不仅成为团队中深受大家尊敬的同事，同时也赢得对手的尊重。
毋庸置疑，我们无法表达我们对他的思念。他不仅仅是我们的工作伙伴，也是我们的好朋友。
在这个悲伤的时刻，我们向他深爱的妻子和女儿表示深深地同情和哀悼。陈强，将长久留在我们的心里。
 
诚挚的问候

Why is Transo-Pharm the number one source for Epinephrine? Here are the answers:

Our scientific team in Germany (6 members including 3 PhDs - backgrounds in chemistry and pharmacy) has over 50 combined years of work experience.

Digitalis (commonly known as Foxglove) is a native Central European plant. You can find it mainly in forests during summer time. Digitalis was first recorded in the year 1542 by Leonard Fuchs.

This plant can also be found in many home gardens due to the beautiful flowering. But take care if children are around: 2-3 dried leaves can lead to death if eaten.
