Pharmaceutical Formulation, Delivery & Characterization Core

The PFDC core provides investigators with state-of-the-art equipment, expertise and custom formulation and drug delivery services for the comprehensive study and preclinical development of pharmaceutical formulations and nanomedicines. The core has been established with the support of the COBRE Nebraska Center for Nanomedicine grant from the National Institute of General Medical Science grant P30 GM127200.

For independent use, initial training by the core staff at $30/h is required. During the initial appointment, the core specialist will demonstrate and teach the technique or procedure to be learned. On subsequent appointments, the user will perform the process with guidance until they are able to complete the task without assistance. Initially, trained users will be restricted to standard hours of operation when staff are available. Upon consistent demonstration of independence, users may be granted 24/7 access.

All core instruments can be reserved via RSS. You will be added to the RSS as an “active user” after the training.  If you need assistance using the Scheduler in the RSS, please contact the Core Administrator.

Normal business hours of the PFDC core are 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM Monday through Friday. Access outside of regular business hours available upon special request.
