A small chemical reactor made via 3-D printing allows for making drugs on-demand
January 19, 2018 by Bob Yirka, Tech Xplore
A team of researchers at the University of Glasgow has developed a system based on 3-D printing reactor modules for creating pharmaceuticals on demand. In their paper published in the journal Science, the group describes how the concept works and offers an overview of using their system to create an actual drug. Christian Hornung with CSIRO Manufacturing in Australia offers a Perspective piece on the work done by the team in the same journal issue and outlines possible uses for such a system.
