Millifluidic synthesis of amorphous drug-polysaccharide nanoparticle complex with tunable size intended for supersaturating drug delivery applications by Tran, The-Thien, Nguyen, Minh-Hiep, Tan, Yong Zen, Chew, Jia Wei, Khan, Saif A., Hadinoto, Kunn

“…Most importantly, the ability to produce significantly smaller nanoplex (sixfold smaller) via millifluidics led to the generation of higher (≈8.5× of CUR saturation solubility) and prolonged (≈8 h) supersaturation level. These results bode well for the bioavailability enhancement potential of the drug nanoplex.…”
