Research is focused mainly upon drug delivery in the oral cavity and bio-/muco-adhesive drug delivery systems.
1. Buccal drug delivery
- Fundamental studies of buccal transport of peptide and protein drugs
- Strategies for enhancing the permeation of molecules across buccal tissue
- Design of buccal mucoadhesive delivery systems employing polymers and liquid crystalline materials
- Development of a cell culture model for studying buccal transport of anticancer agents
- Roles of formulation adjuvants including mucoadhesive polymers in modulating drug
pharmacokinetics
2. Solubilization of poorly water-soluble drugs
- Hydrotropic polymers
- Hydrotropic hydrogels
- Polymeric micelles
- Biocompatible solubilisation systems
3. Novel dosage forms for improving bioavailability
- Fast-melting tablets
- Oral mucosal (topical) spray
