We focus on the design and development of a variety of hydrogels, including temperature-sensitive hydrogels, pH-sensitive hydrogels, and injectable hydrogels to meet diverse therapeutic needs. We offer full support, including formulation feasibility studies, process development and scale-up, formulation characterization, and non-clinical services. We can handle projects ranging from small-scale laboratory work to large-scale commercial production.
