Ceapro Presents Unique Advantages of Pressurized Gas Expanded Technology (PGX) at the 12th Annual BIO World Congress on Industrial Biotechnology
(firmenpresse) - EDMONTON, ALBERTA -- (Marketwired) -- 07/21/15 -- (TSX VENTURE: CZO) ("Ceapro" or the "Company"), a growth-stage biotechnology company focused on the development and commercialization of active ingredients for healthcare and cosmetic industries, presented the unique advantages of its proprietary and novel processing technology at the in Montreal, Canada.
Ceapro''s President and CEO, Gilles Gagnon, M.Sc., MBA, commented, "Our novel PGX processing technology allows for biopolymer processing at a whole new level by generating unique morphologies otherwise not possible. The dried highly porous biopolymers created by this enabling technology can be impregnated and functionalized with other biopolymers to generate exfoliated nano-composites and novel advanced materials for applications ranging from functional foods, nutraceuticals, drug delivery, cosmetic systems to advanced technical applications. Given promising results obtained with various samples, Ceapro is committed to developing the many unique applications of the PGX platform to their fullest potential."
Ceapro''s poster presentation entitled, "PGX Technology: a platform technology for novel biopolymer applications," details the Company''s disruptive enabling technology for drying aqueous solutions or dispersions of high molecular weight biopolymers, such as starch, polysaccharides, gums, pectins or cellulose nanocrystals. As part of his presentation Bernhard Seifried, Ph.D., Ceapro''s Senior Research Scientist and a co-inventor of PGX, discussed the numerous key advantages of PGX over conventional drying and purification technologies and its use in processing biopolymers into high-value, nano-sized polymer structures and novel bio-nanocomposites.
Additionally, he explained that Ceapro''s patented PGX Technology has the ability to:
About Pressurized Gas eXpanded Liquid Technology (PGX)
is a unique and disruptive technology with several key advantages over conventional drying and purification technologies that can be used to process biopolymers into high-value, nano-sized polymer structures and novel bio-nanocomposites. PGX is ideally suited for processing challenging high-molecular-weight, water-soluble biopolymers. It has the ability to make ultra-light, highly porous polymer structures on a continuous basis, which is not possible using today''s conventional technologies. PGX was co-invented by Ceapro researcher Dr. Bernhard Seifried and University of Alberta professor, Dr. Feral Temelli.
