Biotechnology company and drug delivery platform
innovator Lexaria Bioscience (CSE: LXX) (OTCQX: LXRP) this
morning announced that it has identified improved performance features of a new
version of the DehydraTECH(TM) delivery platform primarily suitable for use in
solid oral dosage forms like capsules, tablets and pills for the
pharmaceutical, medical, and supplement markets. The company’s groundbreaking
use of a naturally sourced formulation enhancement more than doubles
DehydraTECH’s absorption performance compared to prior results. During the
company’s animal study, Lexaria tested its DehydraTECH delivery technology with
compounds postulated to behave in a synergistic fashion for enhancement of
gastro-intestinal absorption, which resulted in significantly enhanced
DehydraTECH performance. This new, enhanced DehydraTECH formulation delivers 8X
more CBD into blood and over 19X more CBD into brain tissue than standard
industry formulations. In addition, Lexaria has filed new patent applications
related to the recent innovations. The specific nature of the enhanced DehydraTECH
will remain undisclosed until the new patent filings are published for
proprietary reasons.
