Worldwide Exclusive Licensing Agreement for ResCu-SR(TM)
Based on a Custom Product Formulation and Proprietary Delivery System
SUDBURY, MA, April 26, 2012 /PRNewswire/ - Pure Encapsulations, Inc., the industry leader in manufacturing excellence and quality control, as well as a pioneer in the production of research-based and clinically relevant formulas to healthcare professionals, today announces an exclusive worldwide licensing agreement for ResCu-SRTM, a product developed in collaboration with Atrium Innovations, Maypro Industries LLC and Bioactives LLC. Recently launched, ResCu-SRTM offers a unique combination of highly bioavailable resveratrol and curcumin that are widely recognized approaches to longevity, inflammatory balance, cardioprotection and neurological health.
Resveratrol and curcumin have been the subject of over 4,000 studies and are among the most extensively researched polyphenols. An emerging body of evidence also reveals that these two compounds work in synergy, meaning that the combination may be more effective at promoting health benefits than either agent alone.
ResCu-SRTM was developed using a proprietary MicroActive® delivery technology from Bioactives that improves solubility, reduces particle size, improves absorption and provides a sustained release of the active compounds. The custom formulation was developed in collaboration with Maypro Industries and based on specifications elaborated by Atrium's Innovation Committee.
"This collaborative product development initiative represents another example of our success in developing innovative products supported by extensive research," said Barry W. Ritz, Ph.D., Atrium Innovations' Vice President, Scientific and Regulatory Affairs. "We are proud to support via the Atrium Research Program our own product development, as well as the ongoing efforts of universities and medical institutions worldwide. These rigorous pursuits serve to identify the important role of dietary supplements in promoting human health," concluded Dr. Ritz.
