The new technology, developed by DNT, is called Priostar(TM) and offers a
significant advantage over other precision nanostructures by reducing the
complexity and duration of the synthesis process. The ability to attach many different biological and chemical
compounds to the surface or to encapsulate them within the interior of the
dendrimer have made PAMAM dendrimers attractive to pharmaceutical,
biotechnology and materials companies. These
process features require high excesses of reagents and high dilutions
resulting in low production capacities per reactor volume and thus high costs,
particularly at higher generations.g. This unique amplification process allows rapid building
of surface functionality and molecular weight, therefore obtaining container
properties in fewer generations than for PAMAM.
Dendrimers are nanostructures with specific, precise and predictable
physical properties that make them especially useful for pharmaceuticals,
