|
The unique engineering of the (MDD) Pellet System
integrates the three principles of diffusion, erosion,
and concentration gradients. It generates a finished
pellet with a biodegradable matrix that effectively and
continuously releases the active product in the animal.
The pellet delivery system can help the investigator
take charge of standardizing and reproducing research
results. It helps overcome problems commonly encountered
by researchers who employ conventional delivery methods.
|
| Available Shapes and Sizes |
| Stock pellets range in diameter from 1/8" to 1/2" depending on the
dose and release rate. Customized pellets in various shapes and
sizes are also available to meet your research needs. |
| Available Dosages |
| Most stock products are available in 20 dosages ranging from 1
microgram (0.001 mg) per pellet up to 200 milligrams (200 mg) per
pellet within the specified release rate. Customized dosages are
also available to meet your research needs. Pellet doses reflect the
total amount of net active product released over the indicated
period of time. |
| Available Release Rates |
| Stock products are designed to release continuously for 21 days, 60
days or 90 days. Customized pellets tailored for the duration of
your experiment are also available by request. |
| Available Products |
| In our continuing quest to make available new stock items that were
particularly in demand, we have added several products to the
original Categories. In addition to the listed pelletized products,
Innovative Research of America has an efficient Custom Pellets
Department to prepare products that are not available as stock
items. |
| Proven Effectiveness |
| Researchers from around the world have documented in scientific
literature the advantages of our time release technology over
conventional delivery methods. For over two decades, the MDD
Pellet System has proven to be effective, consistent, economical,
reliable and safe for the animal. Perhaps more importantly,
scientists can expect more meaningful and reproducible research
results by utilizing the MDD Pellet System. Samples of publications
