Ternary system project
In our internal R&D project, we're working on a ternary system. We aim to identify the best polymer candidate and evaluate different API/API/polymer compositions. Stay tuned for results.

Batch versus semi-continuous Spray Drying
Our technology allows us to spray dry in semi-continuous mode. We've estimated that we can produce a large number of samples about 10 times faster than with traditional batch spray dryers. If we would consider a theoretical case of spray drying 20 samples (500 mg/sample), under standard conditions (inlet feed flowrate: 5 ml/min; solid concentration: 50 mg/ml; assuming yield: 80%), it would take about 29 hours with a batch spray dryer whereas with our technology, we can produce the 20 samples in 3.2 hours.

Great potential of beta-glucan particles as novel drug carriers
A great scientific article has been recently published showing the potential of beta-glucan particles as novel drug carriers as they significantly improved oral bioavailability in-vivo. The authors showed the overall oral bioavailability of poorly soluble nilotinib in a rat model was almost doubled when formulated in glucan particles compared to the formulation of reference. Bioavailability enhancement was attributed to API amorphization and subsequent absorption to plasma.
