Lakeshore BiomaterialsTM Polymer
SurModics Pharmaceuticals is a worldwide commercial supplier of Lakeshore BiomaterialsTM cGMP bioabsorbable polymers from the lactide, glycolide and caprolactone family of polymers and a contract manufacturer of biomaterials. Our polymers are components of marketed products used in the pharmaceutical, regenerative medicine, and medical device marketplaces.
Lactide, Glycolide and Caprolactone Polymers
We develop and manufacture bioabsorbable polymers to meet your exact needs. We offer both standard grade cGMP polymers and custom polymers formulated to meet precise specifications.
Lakeshore BiomaterialsTM custom polymer variables
monomer ratios | end group chemistries | molecular weight |
inherent viscosities
PEG copolymers | solubility | degradation | custom monomers (upon consultation)
These polymers are used for feasibility studies and commercial products and an extensive polymer library is maintained in stock for your immediate evaluation.
Contract manufacturing of Biomaterials
Our technical expertise in polymer synthesis (ring opening, condensation, addition), characterization, process development and scale-up allows us to provide contract manufacturing of novel biomaterials for companies developing their next generation innovations.
We can transfer or develop your process from the gram scale to commercial scale in our cGMP facilities.
