In the below document OBJ states that HA (Hyaluronic Acid) has an especially high molecular weight and was considered by many to be too large to be introduced successfully into the epidermis via transdermal means:
http://www.obj.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/ETP-eM-patch-Summary-Results.pdfIf OBJ can deliver HA (
Hyaluronic Acid) via ETP & eM-patch with a
Molecular Weight of
846.786 g/mol:
https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/Hyaluronic-Acid...then it seems logical that OBJ could also deliver
Canniabinoids via the same mechanisms, with a smaller
Molecular Weight of
628.938 g/mol:
https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/9852188Smac - care to weigh in here?
ETP is a nonpowered active magnetic materials technology that uses micro-arrays of magnetic gradients which mobilizedrug molecules and alter the barrier effect through a combination of Diamagentic repulsion and Induce Charge electroOsmosis. The ETP material contains complex intersecting polarity magnetic arrays in a flexible polymer matrix thatgenerate a multiphasic magnetic field capable of enhancing transdermal delivery without disrupting the skin barrierfunction. It achieves this by utilising diamagnetic repulsion to give energy and directionality during partitioning and diffusionand induced charge electro-osmosis as a means of optimizing delivery pathways. (see Mechanisms of Action, section 5)
ETP can be readily incorporated as the patch backing layer in existing drug-in-adhesive and matrix patch technologies toprovide a cost-effective and continuous “active patch” delivery solution.eM-patch is a patch or strip device utilising custom ETP arrays in conjunction with an optimised formation designed toprovide finished goods to meet the needs of industry partners or special therapeutic goals.
