ReAgent has been instrumental in supporting Oxford Medical Products (OMP) as they scale up production of Sirona, a hydrogel platform technology currently in human clinical trials as a weight loss treatment.
With potential applications in drug delivery and biosensors, Sirona represents a breakthrough in gastro-tentative innovation.
From Small Batches to Full-Scale Production
To support this technology’s journey from research and development through to clinical trials, OMP needed a chemical solutions supplier with the ability to scale – and the quality standards to match. That’s where ReAgent came in.
“We use up to one litre of our washing solution for every pill we make,” says Joanna Jablonska, Manufacturing Manager at Oxford Medical. “It wasn’t feasible to manufacture that volume in-house, and we needed a partner who could support us from the early stages through to commercial scale.”
After researching multiple suppliers, ReAgent stood out as the only one able to deliver both small-scale batches and full production quantities – all while maintaining uncompromising quality, regulatory compliance, and customer service.
“John and Kerry were extremely kind and very easy to deal with,” says Joanna. “They answered all of our questions and made the process seamless.”
Supporting Innovation at Every Stage of Development
Today, Oxford Medical receives its simulated gastric fluid in 1,000-litre IBCs, a significant evolution from the original 5-litre containers.
This transition marks not only a logistical success, but a strong and growing partnership based on trust, transparency, and technical expertise.
ReAgent’s bulk pricing and consistent quality have helped Oxford Medical minimise costs and errors while maintaining product integrity. “ReAgent’s ability to support us through our role from R&D to clinical trials has been absolutely instrumental to our success,” Joanna confirms.
