Conventionally, bioabsorbable polymers are used for implantable medical devices, due to their biodegradability and physical/mechanical properties. Our preoperatory technology enables us to introduce reactive functionality into bioabsorbable polymers. This new class of bioabsorbable materials are capable of drug conjugation, as well as micelle and nanoparticle formation. They are highly desirable in targeted drug delivery due to precisely controlled release, and desired interaction with biosystems, micelles, and nanoparticle vehicles.

PrecisePEG™ is a class of products provided by Delnova’s sister company, Affinity Research Chemicals, Inc. In biomedical fields, including controlled drug release, gene therapy, and cancer treatment, PEGylation of active pharmaceutical ingredients or biomolecules plays an important role.

PEG can enhance the biocompatibility, bioactivity, membrane permeability and targetability of drug molecules and drug carries such as micelles or nanoparticles. They are widely used as PROTAC linkers, ADC linkers, nanoparticle modification, and click reagents.

Many applications involving polymeric materials require surfaces with bespoke properties. Often, however, these materials do not possess the appropriate surface properties. Delnova’s surface modification technologies enable us to alter polymeric surfaces. Surfaces can be made to be hydrophobic (water and oil repellent), hydrophilic, functional (chemical reactive), bio-compatible, antifouling, and more.

Traditional batch chemistry often has drawbacks and difficulties associated with it, such as low yields of products, long reaction times, work-up challenges, and safety hazards. 

With flow chemistry, the limitations of batch chemistry can be overcome. Flow chemistry is practiced by continually pumping reagent streams through a reactor system, then collecting the products at the end. The reactor systems employed by Delnova have a much greater surface area to volume ratio when compared to a traditional reaction flask or kettle. This means that products can be produced more quickly, with fewer side products, and less waste. In fact, flow chemistry allows for new synthetic possibilities that would otherwise be impossible to achieve using batch chemistry. 

Whether we’re modeling a flow chemistry process for you, or producing a valuable synthetic compound, you can rely on Delnova’s expertise in flow chemistry to deliver higher yields, cleaner products, and bespoke materials, directly to you.
