A tragic road accident while on duty claimed the life of A. Rajendran, a brilliant analytical chemist who headed the QC/QA department at Sami Chemicals & Extracts, Sabinsa Corporation’s manufacturing facility in Bangalore India.
Mr. Rajendran joined the SAMI team in 1994, during the company’s infancy and contributed greatly to developing the stringent quality standards for it’s wide range of herbal extracts and nutritional supplements. He brought with him over fifteen years of analytical experience in the pharmaceutical industry, having worked with reputed Indian manufacturers such as Tamil Nadu Dadha Pharmaceuticals Ltd. and M/s Cipla Ltd. Mr. Rajendran contributed his expertise to quality systems design, development of efficient analytical techniques, and to generating essential documentation for Quality systems and GMP. He also worked closely with the R & D department, offering valuable guidelines on quality parameters in product and process development.
Mr. Rajendran is survived by his wife and two children. We join them in their grief. Mr. Rajendran will be greatly missed by one and all at SAMI and SABINSA.
