Abstract: Starpharma is carving up and carving out in as many ways as possible product and application opportunities from its dendrimer chemistry platform. Dendrimers are synthetic, branch like chemical structures that can be engineered very precisely. The addition of smaller functional groups on the periphery or even with the greater structure is what makes the chemistry so versatile.
