Expanded Strategic Partnerships: These include a cooperative effort between Biophan's Nanolution division, which develops advanced nanotechnology-based drug-delivery systems, and NaturalNano Inc., a company developing naturally occurring nanomaterials such as halloysite, a mineral with a rich nanotube concentration. In a cooperative project, NaturalNano (www.naturalnano.com) and Biophan's Nanolution division are developing new drug-delivery capabilities, including extremely long lasting drug-delivery coatings with the ability to release drugs for a period of several years. Frost and Sullivan has predicted that the convergence of biomedical devices and pharmaceuticals represents a $40 billion market potential. Among Biophan's technologies is "active drug delivery," with controllable elution using "smart" coatings which elute drugs when electromagnetic fields are presented at a specific resonant frequency.
