What Can We Do?

Proven QMS can support drugs, biologics, medical devices, and combination products:

  • Biologics (mAbs, peptides, proteins)
  • Small molecules
  • Hydrogels, with option to incorporate Lifecore-manufactured hyaluronic acid as an API or excipient
  • Microparticles/nanoparticles (lipid/mRNA)
  • Biopolymers & synthetic polymers
  • Long-acting injectables
  • Emulsions/suspensions

Extensive Tools & Know-How
