Microfluidics International Corporation – PureNano Continuous Crystallizer – MRT-CR5
As leading pharmaceutical companies continue to explore the benefits of continuous manufacturing and bottom-up nanoparticle creation, Microfluidics’ PureNano Continuous Crystallizer is being used to create stabile inhalable formulations, improve the bioavailability of antibiotics and target delivery of novel cancer treatments, among other possibilities.
PureNano is a platform technology with several innovative applications:
- Continuous crystallization
- Efficient nanoencapsulation
- Chemical reactions
- Process intensification
Microfluidics has successfully demonstrated these applications on the lab scale (up to 0.5 liters/min).
