AltaVISC can be tailored to administer a wide array of drug formulations, including shear-sensitive molecules and high-viscosity biologics.
It retains its form factor while offering an extensive pressure range, enabling precise control over factors like temperature and gas composition in both human and environmental settings.
The AltaVISC gas drive system facilitates impact-free delivery. It also helps maintain environmental sustainability using atmospheric gases and reduced material needs.
Altaviz co-CEO Jack Auld said: “As we developed this platform, we were hyper-focused on creating technology that leapfrogs the current state of the art.
