AdAlta has a number of compound libraries including shark antibody, i-body (human version of the shark antibody) and peptide libraries. The shark antibody and i-body offer the same specificity and affinity properties of traditional antibodies, however also offer additional advantages including extreme stability (pH and temperature) as well as small size (1/10th the size of a monoclonal antibody). Due to these advantages the AdAlta shark antibody or i-body can be integrated into small technologies such as novel point of care diagnostic platforms, inhaled therapeutic systems and therapeutic delivery technologies as examples. Due to their small size the shark antibody and i-body offer advantages as therapeutic imaging agents, in specific therapeutic areas, for example cancer (due to increased tissue penetration) and also offer advantages for various therapeutic delivery routes, with potential for pulmonary, ocular, dermal or oral delivery due to their small size and stability. AdAlta can screen its proprietary libraries to identify diagnostic or drug candidates to any target of a client’s choice.

An accurate understanding of market trends and opportunities can be the difference between the successful development and commercialisation of new products and services, or an unsuccessful endeavour. Market research provides valuable insights, assists with decision making and provides future directions for growth and sustainability. It is a vital step along the commercialisation journey. For enabling technologies such as nanotechnology, market research can be used to determine the level of development and maturity of a technology, and predicted future applications and industry impact. Market research can identify the issues for implementation of technologies such as skill requirements, consumer education as well as regulatory issues in various jurisdictions. It can also identify potential barriers to market entry and consumer uptake.

The Centre for Eye Research Australia (CERA) is a medical research institute specializing in basic, clinical and translational research in to eye diseases. We have developed a number of animal models for the investigation of ophthalmic conditions and are involved in research and development of new therapeutic strategies, including novel drug delivery methods, laser treatments, bionic vision, bioengineered tissue and new surgical methods.
Future therapies in each of theses areas will require nanotechnology solutions and small technology expertise as the eye is a small complex organ. For example, a bionic eye will require microelectronics placed on the retina. Another example is the unmet need for drug delivery systems to the posterior region of the eye. Such systems will require nanotechnology to control drug delivery from a small implant.
CERA can offer expertise in animal models to test the performance of these ocular products of the future that will be based on nanotechnology. Futhermore, our clinical expertise, clinical trial experience, and patient repositories allow us to translate animal model findings into human clinical trials.

Formero utilises a range of cutting edge Additive Manufacturing (AM) technologies to produce high quality plastic and metal components directly from a 3D computer model. The AM technologies all utilise the process of building layer upon layer, joining those layers with a high intensity laser. The layer thickness can be varied from 20 to 100 microns. A range of plastic and metals powders are used to produce fully dense components that are ideal for prototyping or production purposes. As no tooling is needed to produce the components the lead times and overall costs are dramatically reduced with parts being produced in hours rather than weeks.

Phosphagenics is a Melbourne-based, globally driven biotechnology company focused on the discovery of new and cost effective ways to enhance the bioavailability, activity, safety and delivery of proven pharmaceutical and nutraceutical products. Phosphagenics’ proprietary technology is a multi-component, multi-function system that revolves around a mixture of different forms of phosphorylated vitamin E called tocopheryl phosphate mixture (TPM). TPM forms unique nanoparticles able to entrap pharmaceutical, nutraceutical or cosmeceutical moledcules, and increase their absorption for greater efficacy when applied topically to the skin (in gels, creams or patches) or taken orally. Phosphagenics is able to conduct a range of studies for third parties interested in how TPM can be used to increase the delivery of their active molecule of interest, either orally or topically. TPM is most applicable to molecules with poor skin penetration or have been shown to irritate the skin, have poor absorption when taken orally (ie. Fat soluble vitamins), or are expensive.

PM Design Groups (PMD) core competence is in the complete engineering design and delivery of innovative and often complex new technology, typically at a project scale of $0.5M-$5m installed cost. Most of our current customers are either established industrial manufacturing firms that invest in new processes or technologies due to product developments or in response to market pressure (increased energy costs, emission reduction etc), or “incubator” or start-up organisations established to commercialise innovative new technologies. As such we have an established capability in developing novel, unusual and “one-off” concepts into operational states. Our engineering process has developed to manage the risk associated with these sorts of development processes. In addition, we are majority owned by an organisation with global engineering project capability that supports our delivery capabilities (Kempe Engineering).
