Polymer Products

CarboMer has successfully launched several innovative life science products. CarboMer’s product line and technologies include:

  • Research chemicals comprising several thousand specialty chemicals, carbohydrates, specialty polymers, pharmaceuticals, excipients, chiral synthons, lectins, and diagnostic tools.
  • Drug delivery polymers, including functionalized biopolymers and PEGs.
  • Proprietary technologies for enhancing the bioavailability, solubility and stability of drugs.
  • Proprietary technologies for diagnostic uses, including nuclear magnetic resonance, magnetic resonance imaging and fluorescent probes and enzyme substrates, such as the CYCLODANS ™, TEMPO™, and THIOMER™ line of products.
  • CarGlumexÒ Biopolymers are a new class of proprietary polymers, specifically designed for life science applications. They offer key advantages for many cosmetic and pharmaceutical uses, such as for drug delivery, encapsulation, wound care, biomembrane, skin treatment, moisturizing and protection products. CarGlumexÒ Biopolymers are highly soluble and compatible with a wide range of solvents, ingredients and formulation components. Their solution properties can be readily modulated from water-like consistency to thick, non-flowing gels. CarGlumexÒ Biopolymers are non-toxic, non-immunogenic, biodegradable, and biocompatible.
  • CarbFerexÒ Polysaccharide Iron Complex is the product of ferric iron complexed to a low molecular weight carbohydrate polymer. It delivers the highest iron dosage, while retaining superior solubility.
  • Cyclodextrin derivatives and complexes.
  • CarGozolÒ, a freely water soluble g-oryzanol preparation for cosmetic and other uses.
  • CarPsianÒ, Sunscreen Polymer is a proprietary, new, water soluble polymer designed for skin protection and cosmetic uses.
  • Proprietary technologies for metal chelation.
  • A broad range of glucan and polymer derivatives.
