China currently has 114 million people with diabetes, the highest in the world, and it is still growing1. It is easy to treat diabetes without the need for a needle, and this more comfortable medical experience is becoming a reality.
Beijing Fast Shure Medical Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Fast Shure") has designed and manufactured a safe and efficient new needle-free syringe product, which has improved the medical experience of patients with diabetes.
"Quick Shure focuses on medical product innovation, providing patients in China and the world with a more convenient, safe and comfortable medical experience and improving their quality of life." Zhang Yuxin, founder and general manager of Quick Shure, said, "So, We choose Covestro as a partner to produce high-quality needle-free syringe products to meet the needs of China's growing population of diabetes patients. "
"Covestro always has a vision of creating a wonderful world. This requires us to continuously innovate and find the most cutting-edge solutions. It becomes impossible to become possible." "Today, the needleless syringe you see is proof of our efforts. It can provide patients with a more comfortable and efficient injection experience and help patients improve compliance."
Based on its own experience in the field of needle-free injection, Fast Shure chose Covestro's medical grade polycarbonate material Makrolon® Rx1805. The product is durable, easy to process, highly secure, and has excellent design flexibility. With superior material performance, Covestro also provides a full range of material solutions for fast Shure needleless syringe products.
"Covestro Makrolon® Rx1805 is mainly used in the production of insulin extraction interfaces and drug-loaded ampoules in fast Shure needleless syringe consumables." Chen Suning, head of the Fast Shure product center, said, "The materials can The precise dimensions, high strength, and high toughness of the medicine parts and ampoules ensure that the medicine taking parts can pierce the drug stopper of the insulin bottle and take medicine safely, and realize the design of the injection needle and the protective end of the medicine suction side by injection molding. A series of rigorous tests have proven that Covestro polycarbonate can achieve multiple indicators of material selection for ampoules: strength, precision molding stability, drug safety and resistance to radiation sterilization. "
The main advantages of Makrolon® Rx1805 polycarbonate are:
● Resistant to grease chemicals, not easy to crack
● Resistant to radiation sterilization, ensuring large-scale and efficient production of ampoules
● Biocompatibility, meeting multiple assessment requirements of ISO10993-1
● High impact resistance, not easy to crack
● Accurate molding size, maintaining stability under different usage environments
"The goal of R & D in the next ten years is to integrate injectable drugs with needle-free technology, and bring the more convenient pre-filled drug-free needle-free drug delivery system to the market. Taking this opportunity, we hope to develop continuous and continuous development with Covestro. Deep cooperation will jointly promote the continuous innovation of needle-free injection technology. "Zhang Yuxin added.
