Formulation–structure relationships
Particle size, dispersity, encapsulation, and stability are influenced by composition and the hydrodynamic conditions under which particles form.
Research
Engineering delivery at the biological interface.
Formulation research examines how process conditions translate into nanoparticle properties across increasingly demanding delivery systems.
Our approach
Developing equipment requires understanding the material it produces.
Particle formation, surface presentation, payload properties, and analytical control are closely connected. Understanding those relationships enables tighter control over reproducibility, scale, and material performance.
Surface functionalisation
Ligand chemistry, density, orientation, and accessibility determine how a nanoparticle presents itself to its biological environment.
Payload compatibility
The size, charge, structure, and stability of a payload affect formulation behaviour, encapsulation, release, and process requirements.
Analytical control
Particle characterisation, composition, encapsulation, impurity measurement, and functional assays connect process settings to material performance.
From design to manufacture
A promising construct must remain controllable beyond the first formulation.
Biological performance alone is not enough. A delivery system must also withstand scale translation, material variability, downstream processing, storage, and the analytical demands required to understand it.
SC Biosystems connects formulation understanding with the equipment and process technologies needed to move advanced delivery systems towards repeatable manufacture.
Collaboration
Conversations across disciplines.
The difficult questions in biomolecular delivery span chemistry, formulation, instrumentation, analytics, and biology. Progress depends on clear communication across those boundaries.
We welcome relevant discussions with research organisations, technical partners, and specialist suppliers.
