Analysis of Systems with Mesoporous Silica Materials

Inquiry

As a drug delivery system (DDS), Mesoporous silica material (MSN) has an ordered porous network with very uniform size, which can well control the drug loading and release kinetics and accommodate the high pore volume of the required number of drugs. MSN has many characteristics, making it very suitable for drug delivery applications. It includes high load capacity, excellent biocompatibility and easy functionalization. The high surface area of MSN means high potential for drug adsorption.

As an expert in the field of nuclear magnetic resonance, Creative Biostructure provides customers with analysis services of the physical and chemical properties of nanoparticles in the API/MSN system and host-guest interaction mechanism based on the solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (SS NMR) spectrum.

Our Principles

We have established a system to study the drug-carrier interaction, quantity (loading degree), location, local molecular dynamics and physical state inclusion complex interaction of loaded drugs in the API/MSN system by SS NMR technology.

SSNMR is a non-destructive and highly flexible technology that can determine various parameters. Through different experiments, structural information and dynamic parameters can be obtained during one measurement. Contrary to other technologies, SSNMR can be applied to any solid physical state (crystalline and amorphous) and materials of different complexity,

In our technical system, we are based on the following three technologies:

  • Magic Angle Spin (MAS)
  • Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP)
  • Surface-enhanced nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (SENS)

SS NMR has become the primary method for us to analyze mesoporous materials and drugs limited in the interaction between nano-carriers and API-MSN.
