We have been able to synergistically address needs in several areas. The expertise that has consistently set us apart is our expertise as well as proprietary technologies in sustained release applications. More recently the organization has had numerous projects that have assisted companies in developing sustained release formulas to bring their products from multi daily doses to just one or two daily doses.
