Platform technology

NanoCelle™Advancing the science of drug delivery.

NanoCelle™ is Medhealth Clinical’s patented sub-micron delivery platform, developed to improve how active ingredients are formulated, delivered and absorbed.

The challenge

Getting the medicine there is only part of the solution.

A molecule's potential depends not only on what it is, but also on how it is delivered.

Drug-delivery science addresses challenges including absorption, consistency, administration and the practical demands of long-term treatment.
  • Absorption

    Absorption

    Improving how medicines are delivered.

  • Consistency

    Consistency

    More predictable delivery.

  • Onset

    Onset

    Delivering when it matters.

  • Administration

    Administration

    Simpler ways to deliver medicine.

  • Adherence

    Adherence

    Designed with patients in mind.

  • Formulation

    Formulation

    Rethinking conventional delivery.

What is NanoCelle

A platform engineered at the sub-micron scale.

NanoCelle™ is designed to disperse active ingredients into sub-micron particles for oro-mucosal delivery.

The platform brings together particle-size engineering, formulation science and delivery design to explore new ways of presenting medicines to the body.

    Stage / Medicine

    Medicine

    An active pharmaceutical ingredient selected for a defined research objective.

  2. 02

    Stage / NanoCelle™

    NanoCelle™

    The active ingredient is formulated using the platform to create a fine sub-micron dispersion.

  3. 03

    Stage / Delivery & absorption

    Delivery & absorption

    The formulation is designed to present the active ingredient across mucosal tissue and support absorption.

  4. 04

    Stage / Therapeutic development

    Therapeutic development

    Promising opportunities can progress through structured research and development programs.
