In today’s pharma industry, you must do more than just provide quality ingredients to make an impact; you have to accompany formulators through a product’s entire lifecycle.


WILMINGTON, Del. (PRWEB)

DuPont Nutrition & Biosciences has consistently advanced its customers forward by ensuring global access to indispensable ingredients and unmatched expertise. At CPhI India, Nov. 26-28, the company will showcase increased capacity on both fronts, in addition to several product innovations such as solubility-enhancing polymers and vegetarian capsule offerings.

DuPont experts will be available at stand 8.Q20 to discuss a wide range of developments, including updated R&D capabilities at the DuPont Knowledge Center (DKC) in Hyderabad, India. The site has been a hub of innovation in the Genome Valley district since it opened in 2008. With new investments, the DKC will become South Asia’s premier application development and innovation facility for oral dosage delivery solutions, direct compression and solubility enhancement, as well as probiotics and biosciences. Manufacturers in South Asia will have unprecedented access to capabilities such as spray drying, hot melt extrusion, compaction simulation and advanced analytical equipment, all of which can solve formulation challenges posed by poorly soluble drugs. DuPont’s ultimate goal in updating the DKC is to help its customers test, research, develop and improve products to make them better, safer and more accessible.

In addition, DuPont will unveil its increased capacity to produce METHOCEL™ Premium HPMC, which will now be manufactured in both Stade, Germany, and Midland, Michigan, U.S. The Stade-based facility will benefit customers in Europe and India, who can now expect shorter lead times for shipments, business continuity planning support, supply chain management and non-GMO labelling for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical markets.

Formulation and product experts will also be on hand to discuss DuPont’s industry-leading products and capabilities, which include:


  • Enhanced R&D capabilities to create solutions for any manufacturing need, including controlled, immediate and delayed release; solubility enhancement; and nutraceuticals.

  • A global state-of-the-art manufacturing network that meets stringent regulatory and quality requirements to ensure all excipients meet ever-evolving standards.

  • International regulatory expertise and local market insights that enable formulators to obtain faster registration approvals.

  • Leadership in quality and regulatory support, which encompasses QbD support, highlighting regulatory education and full-spectrum guidance for drug product filing with DuPont excipients.

  • An innovative ingredient portfolio that includes SeaGel®, a vegetarian capsule offering aimed at meeting demand for plant-based options; and Aquateric™ N100, a cutting-edge enteric coating made from Norwegian brown seaweed; along with HOWARU® premium probiotics, a comprehensive range of clinically documented strains supporting digestive health, immune health, and a range of other health benefits. A wide array of controlled and immediate release solutions will also be on display.

“In today’s pharma industry, you must do more than just provide quality ingredients to make an impact; you have to accompany formulators through a product’s entire lifecycle,” said Savindu Kudrigikar, Business Director, South Asia at DuPont Nutrition & Biosciences. “For us, that means investing in our ability to meet demand and to educate formulators around the world. It all comes down to granting our customers the resources they need to deliver on the promise of a healthier life.”

DuPont now also offers a 70-year presence in silicone-based technology through the legacy of Dow Corning brands and technical experts who have joined the company. Our solutions include pharmaceutical excipients for a safe and efficacious delivery of actives in transdermal and topical therapies, and we also improve the spreadability and sensory aesthetics of semi-solid forms, which can lead to greater comfort and compliance for patients.

As the market for high-quality topical solutions for medical conditions has grown, DuPont’s portfolio has responded with solutions that are designed to deliver the performance consumers expect and the regulatory compliance formulators need. DuPont also will feature our broad range of bio-pharma processing solutions to meet the stringent performance and regulatory requirements for silicone tubing and over-molded assemblies used in fluid transfer and the manufacturing of biologic drugs.

Drs. Elizabeth Randall and Charles Felts, Periodontists in Chattanooga, TN

Drs. Elizabeth Felts Randall and Charles Felts Attend the 105th Annual AAP Meeting

Periodontists Drs. Felts and Randall believe in continuous training and education so they can stay current in the industry and better serve their patients.


Chattanooga, TN (PRWEB)

Chattanooga, TN based periodontists, Drs. Charles Felts and Elizabeth Felts Randall, along with their entire staff, recently attended the 105th Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Periodontology (AAP) in Chicago, IL. The AAP Annual Meetings are designed for attendees to learn, share experiences, and network with fellow periodontists, staff, and dental professionals. The team at Chattanooga Periodontics and Dental Implants brought back what they learned at this event to better serve their patients.

This year’s AAP Annual Meeting featured over 50 courses and 100 speakers for attendees to learn from. One keynote speaker, Dr. Jack Cochran, spoke on the challenges facing all healthcare providers and how periodontics can adapt to the shifting health policy landscape. The meeting took place over four days and offered attendees more than 25 hours of continuing education credits.

Chattanooga Periodontics and Dental Implants offers leading periodontal and dental implant care. Periodontists Drs. Felts and Randall believe in continuous training and education so they can stay current in the industry and better serve their patients. The practice offers cutting-edge treatments, including:

  • LANAP® laser gum disease treatment

  • Gum recession treatment

  • Dental implants

  • Oral plastic surgery

  • IV sedation

As experienced periodontists, Drs. Felts and Randall offer modern dental implant solutions, including TeethXpress® full mouth dental implants. Considered the gold standard solution to replace missing teeth, dental implants mimic the function and appearance of natural teeth after they have been lost or extracted. TeethXpress is a revolutionary approach to tooth replacement for patients who have lost all or most of their teeth. By securing a bridge of lifelike new teeth to dental implants, Drs. Felts and Randall can restore virtually full function and appearance to a patient’s smile.

To make the dental implant surgery easier for patients, this team of periodontists offers IV sedation, which both Drs. Felts and Randall are certified to administer. With IV sedation, the TeethXpress full mouth dental implant process becomes easier as patients can experience reduced dental fear and anxiety, and typically have no memory of the procedure.

Those interested in learning more about Chattanooga Periodontics and Dental Implants, or who would like to talk with skilled periodontists in Chattanooga, TN about dental implant options, are encouraged to schedule a consultation by calling 423-756-2450 or visiting http://www.chattanoogaperio.com.

According to Dr. Pelusi’s nominator for the award, colleague Gayle Jameson, RN, MSN, ACNP-BC, AOCN®, “She literally changed the landscape of access to oncology care in Arizona.”

In her nomination essay, Ms. Jameson, who has been Dr. Pelusi’s colleague for several decades, described her as a caregiver who has “exerted a dynamic influence on advancing the quality of care for patients with cancer and enhancing safe practice, but also has never lost her passion to educate nurses, health care providers, and the community on the unique needs of our dear oncology patients and their families.”

Another of Dr. Pelusi’s colleagues said, “Dr. Pelusi is an excellent mentor, and I have always looked to her for guidance in my own oncology career. I admire her versatility, resourcefulness, and creativity. She has been and continues to be an inspiration for all who have had the pleasure of knowing her and working with her.”

APSHO will begin accepting nominations in December for the third annual Mary Pazdur Award for Excellence in Advanced Practice, which will be presented at the 2020 JADPRO Live conference, October 14-17, in Minneapolis. The winner will receive an honorarium and an all-expenses-paid trip to the 2020 conference, as well as recognition at the meeting and in the Journal of the Advanced Practitioner in Oncology (JADPRO).

The Team at Canal Calem Periodontics, Serving Moorestown and Medford, NJ

The Office Manager of Canal Calem Periodontics Organizes AADOM Event for South Jersey

The All-on-4 dental implant procedure allows the periodontists to restore a patient’s entire mouth with new teeth that rest on as few as four dental implants.


MOORESTOWN, N.J. (PRWEB)

Angela Cocco, the Canal Calem Periodontics office manager, organized the most recent chapter meeting of the American Association of Dental Office Management (AADOM). Angela is a Fellow of AADOM and President of the Southern New Jersey AADOM Chapter. Minal Sampat, the event’s keynote speaker, lectured on “How to Create a Doable Marketing Plan,” providing useful knowledge for periodontists and teams that place dental implants in and around Moorestown, NJ. This meeting was open to all doctors, assistants, office managers and staff.

AADOM is an organization that helps promote and train dental office managers and their staff to better serve their community and practice. Members learn from professionals and their peers, connect with fellow, like-minded dental office staff and gain insightful information to assist them in daily performance. The lecture offered during this month’s meeting educated attendees on how to create marketing plans for specific procedures and for the practice as a whole. This knowledge is often applied to dental implant treatment as the procedure is in high demand, yet many patients do not know enough about this solution for tooth loss.

Minal Sampat spoke at this chapter meeting of AADOM. Sampat is an experienced dental hygienist and marketing expert who has been featured in Forbes, Huffington Post, Dentistry IQ, Dr. Bicuspid and more. Her lecture was open, not only to office managers, but to entire practices. The meeting was recognized by the Academy of General Dentistry’s Program Approval of Continuing Education, and those who attended earned five continuing education credits.

Canal Calem Periodontics values continuing education across their entire practice and represents this by hosting the Pinnacle Dental Study Club, South Jersey’s chapter of the Seattle Study Club. The valuable skills these periodontists are constantly learning from continuing education is blended into the high standard of care that they offer at their Medford and Moorestown, NJ practices. Drs. Mario Canal and Ben Calem offer a wide variety of advanced procedures, from gum disease care to All-on-4® dental implant treatment.

The All-on-4 dental implant procedure allows the periodontists to restore a patient’s entire mouth with new teeth that rest on as few as four dental implants. This drastically improves quality of life, including bite strength, chewing ability, speech and overall self-confidence. In addition to advanced dental implant surgery, patients visiting Canal Calem Periodontics can benefit from tooth extractions, bone grafting, and soft tissue treatments as well as soothing sedation dentistry. Dedicated to investing in advanced technology as well as continuing education, this practice offers a top-tier level of care.
