October 2024 - Portal recently shared its latest research at The PDA Universe of Pre-Filled Syringes and Injection Devices Conference in Arizona. The poster "Addressing the Challenges of Highly Viscous Formulations
Using a Needle-Free Technology" showed ex-vivo testing results which demonstrated PRIME Needle-Free injector can eject consistently and faster than a needle and syringe, while depositing the injectate at a similar depth in the subcutaneous space.
The ability for PRIME NF to eject high viscosity fluids consistently and rapidly could open the doors for new therapies as well as increase patient access to a more agreeable method of drug delivery. Having a needle-free system not only quells the common fear of needles but also boasts faster and more reliable injection times than a mechanical autoinjector. The findings of this study hint at the prospect of pushing beyond the constraints imposed by current needle-based injection devices.
December 21, 2021 - In the consumer tech world, iterations happen very fast, though most inventions are not ‘one and done’ masterpieces: the Dyson cyclone vacuum cleaner made 5,127 prototypes. In the medical device world, development takes longer.
July 2021 - Many undergraduate students get the opportunity to complete a summer internship. Some participate in a Co-Op; a 6-month long internship where students are able to fully immerse themselves in a full-time employment position to better understand their place in the workspace.
June 2021 - Needles are a 150-year-old technology. The world around us is rapidly evolving but drug delivery has not made the same technological strides that other medical devices have. Portal Instruments is looking to change that with a highly innovative needle-free drug delivery injector.
