CD Formulation pharmacokinetics research platform was established in 2012. Relying on the perfect technical service platform for bioassay, data management and statistical analysis, we have grown into a global leader in the field of pharmacokinetics research services, accumulated rich project experience, and have a professional technical team, It can efficiently provide high-quality research results, meet the normative and personalized needs of partners for research and development projects, and is committed to becoming the most ideal pharmacokinetic research partner for drug research and development enterprises.
The pharmacokinetic study of liposome provides accurate data for preclinical trials and provides basis for related clinical trials. Not only can the initial dose be precisely measured, but potential side effects can also be controlled. Animal models are typically used before drugs are tested on humans. In addition, we also need to minimize the effects of the prescription and dosing method used on drug exposure and on the health of the animals used before the experiment. Through pharmacokinetic studies, it can also be more comprehensive and accurate to understand the changes of drug effects with dose and time, and obtain drug efficacy exposure, onset time and maintenance time, which can provide an important reference for the dose and efficacy interval of clinical trials.
At the study center of CD Formulation, we have complete in vitro ADME research, in vivo pharmacokinetics, metabolite identification and other related capabilities, and have excellent service capabilities and project experience. We can provide customized services to our partners, providing customized solutions according to the characteristics of the project at different stages of drug development.
This service aims to help partners understand the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion properties of drugs, evaluate potential drug interactions, and facilitate liposome formulation development.
This service aims to fully elucidate the characteristics of drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion in the body.
Through PK analysis of carrier materials, we help customers analyze and exclude the influence of carrier materials on the biological behavior and pharmacological action of liposomes in vivo.

Results: In this study, the authors developed a novel apigenin-loaded invisible liposome to improve its solubility, plasma retention time and better therapeutic effect. Invisible liposomes (APISL) loaded with apigenin were prepared by ethanol injection. The U.S. Department of Energy performed statistical optimization of the formulation and evaluated particle size, zeta potential, encapsulation efficiency, morphology, in vitro drug release studies, in vivo pharmacokinetic studies, and stability studies. According to the Higuchi release model, the optimized apigenin-loaded invisible liposome L8 showed a higher percentage of drug release than ordinary apigenin. According to in vivo experiments, the exposure time of invisible liposomes is longer than that of pure drug solutions. Compared to standard drugs, studies have shown that apigenin-loaded invisible liposomes exhibit better plasma retention time and stability. Therefore, the results suggest that apigenin-loaded stealth liposomes exhibit improved bioavailability and enhanced anti-tumor efficacy in breast cancer therapy.
