Main Research/Services Activities: Nanotechnology applies the methods and principles of Nano science and nano medicine to pharmacy to develop new drug delivery systems which can overcome the drawbacks of conventional drug delivery systems. Pharmaceutical nanotechnology offers new tools, opportunities and scope, which are expected to have a great impact on many areas in pharmaceutical fields. Established in 2012, Nano Pharmacy Laboratory confusing on the micro/nanotechnology and design of micro/nanosystems for targeted drug delivery. |

Differential Scanning Calorimeter |
Perkin Elmer/ DSC8500 |
A thermal analysis instrument that determines the temperature and heat flow associated with material transitions as a function of time and temperature (specific heat and melting point). |
Thermogravimetric with DTA Analyzer |
Perkin Elmer/ STA 6000 |
Thermogravimetric Analysis is a technique in which the mass of a substance is monitored as a function of temperature or time as the sample specimen is subjected to a controlled temperature program in a controlled atmosphere. An Alternate Definition: TGA is a technique in which, upon heating a material, its weight increases or decreases. |
Freeze Dryer System with Stopper |
Labconco/ 77585-32 |
To remove water or other solvents from the sample, allowing the ice to change directly from a solid to a vapor without passing through a liquid phase. |
