  1849 E 1450 Rd, Lawrence KS, CritiTech, Inc. is a development company focused on applying the company’s Super Critical Fluid (SCF) Technology known as Precipitation by Compressed Anti-solvent (PCA) to enable the formation of micron and sub-micron particles for itself and its clients. CritiTech leverages its experience with PCA to reduce the particle size of generally difficult to solubilize active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) thus increasing the surface area. A second early stage R&D technology at CritiTech can be used to coat the API onto miscellaneous substrates or devices. The company has a research pipeline and has enabled new drug delivery approaches using peritoneal depot delivery. Other delivery modes are continually being explored. This technology has not been extended to RESS (Rapid Expansion of Supercritical Solutions). Show less
