Lexaria Bioscience’s (CSE: LXX) (OTCQX: LXRP) innovative
DehydraTECH(TM) delivery platform is patented for all nonpsychoactive
cannabinoids as well as for tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and psychoactive
cannabinoids. An article discussing the company reads, “Medical researchers
have struggled to find ways to penetrate the blood brain barrier effectively to
transport beneficial drugs for many years. This barrier exists to block toxic
or otherwise dangerous substances from entering the brain and is formed by
layers of microvascular endothelial cells inside blood vessels. Lexaria’s
DehydraTECH(TM) drug delivery platform brings beneficial drugs to the brain
faster. . . . In June 2019, Lexaria completed a series of animal studies using
an enhanced formulation of its DehydraTECH technology. This series built on the
company’s original, independent, third-party laboratory in vitro lab
experiments began in 2015, which showed utilization of the DehydraTECH
drug-delivery platform increased the absorption levels of cannabidiol (CBD) in
human intestinal cells by an impressive 499%. The results of the studies showed
delivery of 1,937% more CBD into animal brain tissue after eight hours using
the enhanced DehydraTECH technology in comparison with generic industry MCT
coconut-oil formulations. Moreover, the animal studies using the enhanced
formulation showed an 811% increase of CBD delivery into the blood in
comparison with generic MCT coconut-oil formulations.”
