Xnova™ Technology Platform
Formulation Development
We develop customized formulations based on the physicochemical properties, biological activity, and intended application of each active ingredient.
Our formulation capabilities include:
Liposomes
Microemulsions
β-Cyclodextrin complexes
Solid lipid nanoparticles
Ionic-liquid delivery systems
Microsponge technologies
Scientific Evaluation Services
Characterize quality, biological activity, safety and clinical performance.
Each evaluation programme is aligned with the formulation, active ingredient, intended application, and product-development objective.
01Quality
Physicochemical Characterization
We evaluate the critical quality attributes of developed formulations to ensure stability, consistency, and product performance.
Our services include:
- Particle size and size distribution
- Zeta potential
- Encapsulation efficiency
- Active-ingredient content
- Solubility and dissolution
- pH, viscosity, and appearance
- In vitro release studies
- Permeation and skin-deposition studies
- Accelerated and long-term stability studies
02In Vitro
In Vitro Biological Evaluation
Our cell-based studies assess the biological activity, safety, and efficacy of formulations before advancing to more complex testing.
Evaluation capabilities include:
- Cytotoxicity and cell viability
- Anti-inflammatory activity
- Antioxidant activity
- Collagen and elastin support
- Anti-ageing activity
- Melanogenesis and pigmentation studies
- Antimicrobial and anti-acne activity
- Cellular uptake and mechanism-of-action studies
03Ex Vivo
Ex Vivo Biological Evaluation
We use physiologically relevant skin models and biological tissues to understand formulation behaviour and performance under conditions that closely represent human skin.
Our ex vivo services include:
- Skin penetration and permeation
- Epidermal and dermal deposition
- Barrier-function assessment
- Histological evaluation
- Biomarker analysis
- Comparative product-performance studies
04Safety
Safety and Performance Evaluation
Each formulation is evaluated through a structured testing programme designed to establish product safety, functional performance, and suitability for its intended application.
Testing may include:
- Skin irritation and sensitization
- Phototoxicity assessment
- Ocular irritation screening
- Compatibility studies
- Performance benchmarking
- Reference-product comparison
05Clinical
Clinical Evaluation
Bakunova supports scientifically designed clinical studies to validate product safety, tolerability, and consumer-relevant benefits.
Clinical evaluation may include:
- Dermatological safety assessment
- Skin hydration and barrier improvement
- Fine-line and wrinkle reduction
- Skin firmness and elasticity
- Pigmentation and skin-tone improvement
- Acne and sebum-control assessment
- Consumer-perception studies
