Product Description

Our multi-patented Controlled Expansion of Supercritical Solutions (CESS®) technology enables the creation of API nanoparticles directly from solution. The process can be applied to most small molecules, with a high success rate of 80-90%.

CESS® is a bottom-up method of recrystallization that works by controlling the solubility of an API in supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2). The use of scCO2 permits a green particle engineering process with pharmaceutical CO2 that is free from excipients and organic solvents. CESS® represents a significant improvement over previous supercritical technologies due to the employment of controlled mass transfer, flow and pressure reduction.

Benefits of CESS®

Controlled particle shape

Our nanoforming process can control the shape of particles, leading to greater uniformity.


Controlled particle size

Our technology can produce nanoparticles as small as 10 nm. Smaller particles have greater active surface areas, which permits an increased rate of dissolution.


Controlled polymorphism

Polymorphic purity tests have shown that stable single polymorphs can be produced with defined process parameters enabling polymorphic control.

  • Whitepaper "(b)(2) or not to be, that is the question* Strategies for patient-centric differentiation through the USFDA 505(b)(2) pathway

    USFDA 505(b)(2) submissions can be advantageous because they can often lead to faster routes to approval when compared to traditional development pathways while creating new, differentiated products with commercial value. Jamie Unwin, Commercial Insight Officer at Nanoform, sat down with Timothy Pang, Executive Director, Pharma Consulting at Informa Pharma Custom Intelligence to discuss unique performance insights from the last three years for key molecules approved by this pathway, and to reflect on how patient-centric drug development has generated commercial value. Further, they discussed their view on the future direction of the industry with regards to the adoption of 505(b)(2) approaches, and the key technological advances that can empower these.
