Excipients

Pharmaceutical excipients, which can be functional or inactive ingredients, work to enhance the medically relevant properties of the API. When used to promote ingredient qualities, excipients can be an asset for formulators to increase stability, bulk up the formulation, or enhance the therapeutic effects of the API. Below you can explore helpful resources including editorial coverage and webinars related to pharmaceutical excipients.

Integrated Multi-Omic Data: Powering Precision Medicine
Precision medicine is poised to transform medicine as we’ve known it, from the earliest R&D efforts by drug developers all the way to patient assessment and physician prescribing. In fact, it is projected that the precision medicine market will reach into the hundreds of billions of dollars in the coming years. But getting there presents some of ... read more
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
