Polyvalent Ionizable Lipid Library

Download our Technology Catalog

Overview

Lipid delivery systems containing ionizable lipids have entered broad clinical use with the introduction of the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines and are now generally considered the gold standard for in vivo mRNA delivery.

Our scientists developed a technology that enables rapid screening of a library of polyvalent ionizable lipids to select for potent application-specific lipid formulations9.

The Polyvalent Ionizable Lipid Library is protected by a pending U.S. patent (with additional patents pending in other countries).
