Xylome’s TopicOil® provides a large carrying capacity for hydrophobic drugs.
DRUG DELIVERY
The Problem
Topical hydrophobic drugs have limited formulation options.
Hydrophobic drug formulations feel oily and skin-drying emulsifiers are undesirable.
Commercial liposomes have been used, but their diameters are ~0.1 microns.
In addition, low volume to surface ratios affect drug loading. Emulsion formulations have similar limitations.
TopicOil® is a radically new topical drug delivery platform.
TopicOil® contains ~10 micron lipid bodies, and has a higher drug-carrying capacity, smoother texture, and sealing properties unlike anything else on the market.
Xylome’s highly purified TopicOil™ lipid bodies are an order of magnitude larger in diameter – ranging from 5 to 12 microns on average.
