Clinical research organizations (CRO) range from small niche specialty groups to large international full-scale organizations. These organizations can offer their clients and customers the experience of moving a new drug or device from its conception to FDA approval without any staff maintenance by the drug sponsors for these services.
A clinical research organization (CRO) is often called a contract research organization (CRO). CRO is a service organization that provides support to pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries in the form of outsourced clinical research courses and services for both medical devices and drugs. The main functions required to conduct clinical researches, which are usually departments of the clinical research organization, are: The function of medical op…

Monodispersed PEG linkers are pure compounds with a single molecular weight. In contrast, polydisperse PEGs linkers contain variations in molecular weight with an average molecular weight.
Monodisperse PEG products usually are organic compounds with a molecular weight of less than 1000. Monodispersed PEG linkers are pure compounds with a single molecular weight. In contrast, polydisperse PEGs linkers contain variations in molecular weight with an average molecular weight. The use of polydisperse PEGs linkers in drug development has led to problems in biological applications due to steric hindrance and binding. With advancements in both synthetic and purification chemistry over the past two decades, monodispersed PEG linkers have become more commercially viable. Monodispersed…

With the global medical device market expected to hit USD 613 billion value by 2025, there will be an inevitable increase in associated regulatory requirements. That means MedTech manufacturers must adopt a more cohesive way of refining technical content, while integrating market feedback into product lifecycle and labelling management. Barbara Peralta, Director of Life Sciences Solutions at Amplexor, explores how this might happen.

Lipid nanoparticles have been developed as vehicles for small molecule delivery by the nanomedicine and materials communities and are now a key component of COVID-19 mRNA vaccines.
Vaccines against COVID-19 have been developed with unprecedented speed. In particular, mRNA vaccines — a technology already in clinical trials for other infectious diseases, such as influenza — have shown impressive efficacy in clinical trials. mRNA vaccines rely on the delivery of mRNA into the cytoplasm of host cells, where it can be transcribed into antigenic proteins to trigger the production of neutralizing antibodies. However, mRNA is three to four orders of magnitude larger than molecules that readily diffuse into cells; in addition, the dense negative charge of mRNA electrostatically repulses the an…

The pharmaceuticals sector is facing a raft of difficult challenges today. In broad terms, pharmaceuticals manufacturing is a complex process. Patented products are licensed for a finite amount of time before they become generic, equating to a constant sense of ‘the race is on’ to be able to meet demand. Manufacturers are focused on reducing supply chain disruption, increasing batch production capacity, and reducing batch losses.
