Introduction

  • The facility is developed to produce cutting edge technology in the Field of nanodrug delivery system.
  • The facility includes formulation, evaluation, in-vitro analysis of Nanodrug delivery systems.
  • We also have a in house animal house facility which facilitates for in- Vivo estimation of the formulations.
  • Presently we work on anticancer, antiepileptic, antituberculosis, Antischizophreniac, antidiabetic and antiangina drugs.
