Paediatric Pharmaceutical Technology and Advanced Formulation

This service provides pre-formulation and formulation studies for paediatric applications using microfluidics for nanoparticles, prilling and spray-drying for microparticles, and 3D printing for personalised doses. Activities include prototype manufacture and characterisation (size/PDI, encapsulation, yield, dissolution, stability) with in vitro testing. Outputs include formulation prototypes and a shortlist of leads. Dose and delivery system selection is guided by modelling and simulation for treatment personalisation, particularly for off-label or repurposed drugs.
