Nano delivery systems are regarded as the most effective and versatile carriers for therapeutic drugs (Food supplements, cosmeceuticals, nutraceuticals…), as they can transport molecules rapidly and efficiently via various mechanisms. 

What are their properties?

– Increased bioaccessibility (20-100-fold)
– Increased bioavailability (20-100-fold)
– Increased transdermal delivery (Topical & Systemic)
– Overcome limited transportation through the blood-brain barrier (BBB)
– Rapid onset
– Controlled drug release
– Protection from enzymatic degradation
– tasteless
– Odorless

A great opportunity as well as potential challenge is foreseen from the large number of water insoluble drugs that are approved by EU, FDA, as well as those in the developmental pipeline. Exploring recent advances of insoluble drug delivery technologies will help in better therapeutic applications with improved patient compliance.

SUPERSONIC BIO TECH SA has dedicated 3 years to Research & Development in the framework of a partnership with the C.N.R.S (CENTRE NATIONAL DE LA RECHERCHE SCIENTIFIQUE) and the “UNIVERSITÉ OF SAVOIE MONT BLANC”. We have identified and developed two technologies to solubilize poorly soluble active plant’s compound in water:

– Nanoemulsions is a novel drug delivery system consisting of dispersed oil/water systems with mean droplet diameters ranging from 50 to 500 nanometers
– Inclusion complex: a chemical complex in which one chemical compound (the “host”) has a cavity into which a “guest” compound can be accommodated

Mastering these two technologies allow us to apply them independently to most of the active ingredients found in nature and supercharge their therapeutical effect.

Few examples: Cannabis Cannabinoids (CBD, THC…), Flavonoids, Terpenes, Essential Oils, Curcuminoids, KRILL and many others.
