Drug Delivery

Drug delivery is the method in which a pharmaceutical compound is administered to promote a therapeutic effect. Drug delivery routes can include oral, transdermal, nasal, and sublingual application and can directly impact a drugs efficacy. In this drug delivery content hub, you can discover editorial coverage of the latest research and industry trends impacting drug delivery and novel drug discovery.

  • The Critical Role of Diagnostics in Antimicrobial Stewardship

    Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a pressing global health challenge. While much of the discussion is focused on future implications, resistant infections are already having a profound impact. In 2019, bacterial AMR was directly responsible for an estimated 1.27 million deaths worldwide - more than HIV/AIDs or malaria.. The actions we take today ... read more
  • COVID-19 Five Years Later: The Impact on Drug Discovery

    Five years ago, COVID-19 was declared a global pandemic, marking the official onset of a healthcare crisis that has claimed more than seven million lives and whose impact continues to resonate today. Initial containment efforts for the evasive and evolving SARS-CoV-2 virus required unprecedented collaboration between nations, healthcare agencies, ... read more
  • Regulating the Shift: Quality and Compliance in Decentralized Drug Production

    Technology is driving a fundamental shift in pharmaceutical and biotechnology manufacturing. For the first time, advanced mobile and modular platforms are making decentralized manufacturing truly viable, transforming how drugs are produced, delivered, and accessed. These platforms leverage automation, standardization, enhanced data throughput, and ... read more
  • Whitepaper: Key Considerations for Extracting Proteins from Recombinant Host Cells

    In the biopharmaceutical industry, quality is pivotal. For a final product to meet quality standards, quality must be built into the production process. Biopharmaceuticals, however, are made from biologically sourced materials, which are inherently variable. read more
  • eBook: Glass Related Recalls in Pharma

    Typically, drug recalls fall into two categories: recalls issued for the cracking or breaking of glass vials and recalls issued for the presence of particulates being detected in the drug solution. read more
  • Whitepaper: Purification Strategies for Recombinant Therapeutic Proteins

    Many biopharmaceuticals are recombinant proteins obtained by biotechnological processes. In various steps of the pharmaceutical value chain, from drug discovery, to development and manufacturing, to bioprocessing, these proteins must be extracted from their complex biological sources, typically microorganisms or genetically ... read more
  • Whitepaper: Global regulators’ FAQs on CMC in IND/BLA filing

    Mammalian cell cultures used in the manufacturing of therapeutics must be tested to ensure lack of mycoplasmal contamination. Previously, the only test for mycoplasma accepted by regulatory agencies was a culture-based test such as the test detailed in USP <63>. Currently, regulatory agencies globally accept nucleic acid testing ... read more
