A collection of case histories of successful collaborations between High Technology Network Laboratories and businesses. These are tangible and customisable examples of the application of new technologies, products, or services that show how industrial research can meet the needs of innovation.
It is known that SARS-CoV-2 virus can enter the body also through the eyes, especially in individuals suffering from dry eye syndrome. In these individuals, the virus initially causes conjunctivitis, which may potentially progress to the typical...
Inhalable powder combining a local anaesthetic with a hydrophilic biocompatible polymer able to induce prolonged cough suppression
The powder is composed of microparticles suitable for the deposition in the upper airways where the cough receptors are...
EDA is a device assisting in the correct self- or assisted-administration of eye drops, solving the very common problem of low adherence to eye drop treatment and incorrect techniques of eye drop administration.
Even though EDA projecting required...
The procedures developed by the Laboratory for Advanced Therapy Technologies (LTTA) exploit innovative technologies for the evaluation of the immunomodulatory and antioxidant properties of specific compounds contained in foods, nutraceuticals and...
Biopharmanet-tec developed an innovative delivery system for the nasal vaccination using dry powders containing at the same time an antigen and an adjuvant in form of a nanoemulsion.
Powders have been obtained by «layering» the antigen and the...
Pulmonary administration of protein drugs or vaccines in the inhaled powder form is an alternative to administration by injection. The technology stems form the project Pulmomed (www.pulmomed.eu). Proteins at high purity level were expressed with a...
Biopharmanet-tec has developed an innovative system for tissue repair and the local release of drugs stimulating regeneration, based on physically modified chitosan. Biocompatible and biodegradable scaffolds are prepared to be applied locally, to act...
Biopharmanet-TEC developed an innovative drug delivery system for the local delivery of anticancer drugs, i.e. a biodegradable polymer thin film. Biocompatible, biodegradable polysaccharide-based film were developed for direct application at the...
The technology for the pulmonary administration of antibiotic drugs in the inhaled powder form is an alternative to administration by nebulization. Therespirable microparticles with high content of aminoglycoside antibiotic were prepared for spray...
An innovative drug release system based on a modular technology has been developed at the University of Parma. The release modules, consisting in tablets or polymeric matrices, have been prepared to be assembled in a single structure, forming the...
Assessment of in vitro effects of drugs, active ingredients and neo-synthesis molecules on primary cultures of human endothelial cells (Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells and adult Vein Endothelial Cells) through monitoring i) cellular...
