About Us

Founded in 1991, Particle Sciences has established itself as a leading contract research organization (CRO) built on a foundation of drug product formulation and a comprehensive suite of supporting services including analytic, bioanalytic, physical characterization and manufacturing. Our goal is to design and produce the most effective drug products for our clients. From the beginning, we have been leading the way with commercial innovations, scaling our first nano-particle back in 1994 to over 500,000kg per year. Today our clients include over half of the leading pharmaceutical and biotech companies, governments, foundations, universities, hospitals and privately-backed start-ups.

We bring over two decades of experience to each project providing an efficient suite of preformulation, formulation, analytic and manufacturing services. Our facility is designed to handle a range of needs from sterile and non-sterile manufacturing to highly potent compounds. Our pharmaceutical services staff of over 40 chemists and engineers are dedicated to your success. A responsive and collaborative approach ensures that the objectives of all clients, large and small, are successfully met on time and on budget with the highest degree of quality.

At Particle Sciences, our approach is data driven, and individualized to your needs. We have identified the common obstacles to effective drug product development and assembled a pool of technologies to address them. We believe drug research and development should be efficient and cost effective.

Particle Sciences is DEA licensed to work with all scheduled drugs. In addition, we are fully equipped to work with highly potent compounds, including cytotoxics.

We have experience in a number of formats including solutions, gels, emulsions, suspensions, micro and nano-particulates and drug/device combination products. Particle Sciences has a wide breadth of technologies that we can bring to bear on your project. Click here learn more about our services.
