We develop simple and complex formulations for the regulated market from strategy preparation, tech transfer to NDA, ANDA filing support. We use Design of Experiments and Quality by Design approach to get the best quality product in which quality is inherently achieved by risk analysis and design approach.

Formulation and development of Antibiotic Resistance Breakers with antibiotics, Targeted oncology products, Stealth Targeted Nanoparticles for oral delivery, Interpolymeric complex for hemostatic activity, Cold plasma physics based dual oxidizing agent based molecules as well as generic and proprietary medicines.
