At the Laboratory of Pharmaceutical Technology fundamental and applied research is carried out in the fields of granulation, tabletting, extrusion, spray-drying, freeze-drying, prilling and intraperitoneal drug delivery. The research is focused on thedevelopment of innovative drug dosage forms (mainly solid dosage forms) for human application as well as for veterinary use. These dosage forms are based on pharmaceutical accepted excipients and/or processed via specific techniques to optimize the drug release profile (immediate, controlled or sustained release) from the formulation.
