MICROSPHERE FORMULATION
PSL is the trusted microsphere processing specialist. Our innovative MicroSphere Refiner (MSR™) technology has been globally used and proven at all levels of microsphere production, from early R&D activities up to clinical trials and commercial manufacturing.
TRANSFORMING THE WORLD OF
MICROSPHERE FORMULATION
The MicroSphere Refiner (MSR™) is the flagship process technology of Powder Systems Ltd (PSL). It is disrupting the way microsphere drugs are traditionally developed and manufactured around the world.
Microspheres or micro-particles are complex drug formulations combining an Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) with an FDA-approved polymer such as PLGA. Microsphere drugs enable the sustained release of APIs into patients over prolonged periods of time, varying from weeks up to several months.

CHALLENGING THE STATUS-QUO
Despite their outstanding benefits for millions of patients around the world, microspheres are notoriously known to be difficult to process and develop for drug manufacturers.
Our unique MicroSphere Refiner (MSR™) technology was created to provide drug manufacturers with a reliable and innovative tool enabling them to overcome all well-known issues in their microsphere scale-up development, such as filtration & drying inefficiencies, poor batch reproducibility and lack of sterility assurance.

A LEGACY OF INNOVATION
The MSR™ is a one-of-its-kind solution that has been developed over the last 25 years in collaboration with industry partners through a Quality-by-Design (QbD) approach, taking into account the microspheres characteristics and process behaviour.
PSL adopted a systematic approach to the development of the MSR™ technology by pre-defining industry-wide objectives for quality production of microspheres. A particular emphasis was put on process understanding and control through P.A.T. (Process Analytical Technology).

INDUSTRY TESTIMONIALS
It has been a pleasure working with the PSL team. Their focus on design, fabrication, and customer support of our new equipment has been essential for the success of our project. I look forward to working with them again in the future.
Our company contacted PSL as we were looking for a reliable industry partner to develop our microsphere drug process. We opted for their GFD®Lab technology to complete our R&D scale-up activities and were pleased with the process outcome. We experienced consistent product quality and excellent batch reproducibility despite significantly scaling-up our production in our Lab. We also attended a Microsphere Summit organised by PSL in South Korea and appreciated the process consulting received from COPE™. We look forward to partnering again with PSL and utilising their COPE™ expertise to reach our future clinical and commercial production milestones.
It was a great pleasure to work with PSL and COPE. With their highly experienced engineering service, they served us greatly and willing to help us finding exact solution for our process needs. We would love to work again with PSL undoubtly.
