The Journal publishes innovative research papers, reviews, technical notes, commentary and communications including but not limited to:
• the effect of excipients on drug formulation development
• the effect of food chemicals on food products and their processing
• the effect of excipients on drug delivery (including lipid-based systems, solid dispersion, nanotechnology, targeted drug delivery, etc.)
• the effect of excipients on bioavailability
• excipient efficacy, safety and toxicity
• excipient stability, ability to manufacture and industrial processing
• novel excipients and food chemicals and their physical chemistry
• new or improved analytical methods to characterize excipients and food chemicals
• co-processed excipients and/or performance modifying excipients
• drug-excipient interactions and compatibility
• excipient and food chemical regulatory, quality and compendial issues, including excipient harmonization
Excipients or Food Chemicals may be small molecule, macromolecules, proteins, polymers, lipidic or polymeric self assembled nanocarriers or nanostructured dispersions, adjuvants or of genetic origin.
