Oral Filmstrips for Drug and Supplement Delivery
Biota is a highly specialized drug-delivery company that develops and commercializes bioadhesive technologies and products. The company's patented AlgiFilm filmstrips address the need for simple-to-administer pharmaceuticals and nutritional supplements. Biota's proprietary oral mucoadhesive AlgiFilm filmstrips are a versatile and precise drug-delivery system that can improve patient compliance due to the product's conformable adherence and the oral mucosa site of administration. The disintegration time of the filmstrips can be modulated from less than one minute to a few hours, providing advantages such as taste-masking and improved bioavailability. The company is also researching marine algae as a potential source for novel biomimetic adhesives. Biota's products are in various stages of development and have yet to be approved for medical use.
