Meyer Zall Laboratories Emzaloid Delivery System
Meyer Zall Laboratories developed the Emzaloid™ “Biomaterial Active Ingredient Delivery System”. The MZL Emzaloid™ Technology is a patented trans dermal drug delivery system comprising of a unique submicron emulsion type formulation capable of encapsulating various drugs and delivering these with high efficacy to target sites in the body. The size, shape and clustering of Emzaloid™ in “sponges” and in so-called “depots” can be controlled and reproduced through mechanical composition and other means. The absorption capabilities of the Emzaloid™ can be controlled in this manner.
The encapsulation of actives within the Emzaloid™ Technology creates a safer and more effective formulation than one involving the said active alone.
Whilst there are many existing delivery system technologies such as lipids or viral vectors, the Emzaloid™ Technology is unique among these in that it is comprised of essential substances which are natural ingredients of the human body. These substances are treated in a special manner which may afford significant advantages over other delivery systems. Emzaloid™ is significantly different from liposome and nanosome delivery systems.
Since the very beginning, the effectiveness of the topical Linotar / Exorex product was beyond reasonable expectations and it displayed an exceedingly high rate of successful treatment. Linotar / Exorex contains the active agent coal tar which is commonly used in the treatment of Psoriasis. This led the scientists to realise that the Linotar / Exorex formulation was more than simply a new generation cosmetically acceptable coal tar product.
