Drug Delivery & Product Design
Developing better methods of drug design and delivery systems is a crucial factor in progressing overall drug delivery. By optimising the delivery of antibiotics to the patient, thereby reducing the dose needed to combat infections, the likelihood of side effects to the patient is reduced.
Key Strengths:
Drug delivery using nanotechnology and smart polymers
Nanotechnology is used to control the quantity and timing of the release of a drug in the body, and to improve product development and the efficiency of the drug treatment.
Bio responsive drug delivery
Bio responsive drug delivery is the deliveriy of drugs to the patient on a self-regulated (automated) basis.
INsmart drug delivery
The patented INsmart insulin drug delivery system is a pioneering development in the management of diabetes. The smart glucose-sensitive delivery device is an implantable medical device which can deliver insulin to the patient on a closed-loop or self-regulated basis.
Tablet formulation
We offer extensive expertise in pharmaceutical and cosmetic product development, from initial conception through to commercialisation. We also offer assistance in solid product development, processing and problem solving.
Taste masking
Masking bitter and foul odours in liquid and solids using nanotechnology without the use of sweeteners and sugar derivatives.
Which industries can benifit:
- Pharmaceuticals – manufacturers of vaccines, polymer liquids, vaccines or drugs
- Food and drink - manufacturers which require the masking of unpleasant tastes
- Cosmetics and dermatology – manufacturers of skin care products
- Veterinary – manufacturers of animal drugs
