Making and modeling better membranes could help unclog pharmaceutical pipelines

Freeman Technology has published a new white paper that describes extensive experimental studies examining the multiple mechanisms that lead to powder caking. Caking is a routinely encountered problem within powder handling applications which compromises productivity and increases waste.

The pharmaceutical industry has withdrawn from the ‘antibiotic space.’ Is it time for research universities to step in?

This is the inescapable conclusion of Michael Kinch’s adventures in data mining

After 12 years of hosting the annual Ion Channel Retreat in Vancouver, Aurora Biomed is expanding its global reach to include a second retreat in Guangzhou, China.

Thermo Fisher Scientific has developed an efficient ion chromatography (IC) method with on-line sample cleanup for the rapid and sensitive determination of p-toluenesulfonic acid in water-insoluble drugs.

An analysis of patented university inventions licensed to biotechnology firms has revealed early bottlenecks on the path to commercialization. To open these roadblocks, the researchers suggest that better communication of basic research results during the discovery stage could lead to faster commercialization down the road.
