Medical technology company Biocompatibles turned to Medicine at the University of Southampton when it was looking for expert help in evaluating one of its new products.
The Faculty of Medicine has been instrumental in helping medical training company Biocompatibles in evaluating a new product. Biocompatibles is a leader in the field of drug device combination products. The company had created a fluorescent red dye, able to deliver drugs into live cells and stay active for days. Crucially the company had developed a product with no toxicity – which is currently a problem with similar products in the market. The company, however, needed a better understanding of its biological applications and turned to us for expert advice. Our expertise helped the company to evaluate the dye and thoroughly explore potential future uses.
