Funded Activity Summary

Mannitol Powders for Assessment of Asthma in Children. A successful conclusion of this project will enable Australia to become a world leader in childhood asthma assessment. The availability of an objective diagnostic test for early detection of asthma would assist formulating early treatment strategies at this crucial stage in the progression of the disease, improving the quality of life of asthma sufferers in their early years. The Australian pharmaceutical sector will benefit through the ability to develop proprietary formulations targeted towards taking advantages of the scientific knowledge on pharmaceutical powders and aerosols. The mannitol testing is environmental friendly as powder aerosol delivery does not require any harmful organic solvents to operate.
