DBcaps® Capsules
With so much at stake riding on clinical trial results, why leave yourself open to bias and patient adherence issues with your clinical trial supplies - particularly when the trial involves double-blinding of active comparators? Active comparator tablets can be discretely enclosed within DBcaps capsules, which are specially designed to improve patient compliance and bias prevention.

Daily Intakes for Colorants
View the maximum number of DBcaps capsules per day that can be taken based on the capsule size in order to meet certain regulatory limits.
Encapsulation Machines
DBcaps can be filled on most clinical trial equipment, including automatic and semi-automatic capsule filling machines, and on select manual filling machines. In most cases, only 'appropriate' change parts are needed for the machine you are currently using - see which ones.
CFS 1200 Liquid Filling & Sealing Machine
The CFS 1200 is an innovative development-scale bench-top machine that is specifically designed to allow formulation scientists the ability to better exploit the potential of lipid-based formulations for poorly soluble compounds. It automatically fills and seals two-piece capsules with liquid or semi-solid formulations and helps accelerate the development timeframe to achieve Faster Time to First in Man.

Xcelodose® S Precision Micro-dosing System
With the Xcelodose S system, creating manufacturing batches for clinical trials has never been easier or more precise. That's because this unique technology allows companies to fill capsules with drug substances alone, thereby eliminating the need for excipient compatibility and preformulation activities.
