This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"Mucoadhesion is a powerful mode of drug delivery. Prolonged exposure to mucosal tissue allows for drug release over an extended period of time, improving both compliance with drug treatment and convenience of use among patients. Unfortunately, there is no standard method for evaluating the performance of different mucoadesive drug formulations. Now, there’s MUCO-DIS, developed by University of Huddersfield. MUCO-DIS is an AFM- and microfluidics-based system that simultaneously measures four core functional properties of mucoadhesive formulations at the nanoscale: mucoadhesion force, 3D surface topography, polymer dissolution, and drug release characteristics. Researchers at University of Huddersfield used this newly developed MUCO-DIS to evaluate the performance of metformin mucoadhesive formulation..."

The rest of the transcript, along with a link to the research itself, is available on the resource itself.
