The potential to improve therapeutic outcomes with microfluidics

June 22, 2021 By Annalisa Tirella and Gurinder Vinner

Traditional methods for drug encapsulation are limited in their ability to fabricate consistently sized, monodisperse liposomal formulations. As a result, they can negatively influence the efficacy of therapeutic drug delivery. More efficient manufacturing methods and microfluidic technologies provide an alternative, high throughput and cost-effective approach to producing nanotherapeutics. Researchers at the University of Manchester are […]

Self-selecting peptides hold promise for drug delivery

October 4, 2016 By Sarah Faulkner

Self-selecting peptides

Researchers developed self-selecting polymers that form by adapting to their environment, according to a study published yesterday in Nature Nanotechnology. The peptides continually reorganize their sequences to form polymers most suited to their environment, instead of researchers designing polymers to fit their surroundings or relying on chance discovery. “In our quest to find materials based on […]
