BOSTON, Oct. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — MEPSGEN US, Inc., a global innovator in drug
delivery system platforms, today announced the launch of NanoCalibur® Mini, an automated
system for small-volume nanoparticle formulation designed for early-stage drug discovery
and development.

NanoCalibur® Mini

Nanoparticles are delivery vehicles that carry therapeutic payloads to target sites
in the body, and they are central to next-generation modalities such as mRNA and
gene therapies. Early-stage research requires repeated testing of many raw materials
and process conditions, so the ability to generate fast, consistent results from
limited material is essential.

NanoCalibur® Mini formulates lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) and polymeric nanoparticles
at volumes of 0.1–3 mL. Built on MEPSGEN‘s proprietary microfluidic technology, 
it delivers precise, stable microfluidic flow control for rapid and highly reproducible
formulation. Researchers can choose between two single-use microfluidic cartridges,
0.1–0.4 mL and 0.4–3 mL, to match their application, from early formulation screening
through a range of preclinical studies. By enabling many formulation conditions 
to be tested quickly with minimal material, Mini helps accelerate development timelines
while reducing reagent consumption and experimental costs.

**One ****production**** architecture, from discovery to GMP**

With the addition of Mini, the NanoCalibur® Series now spans four systems (Mini,
Lab, Pro, and GMP), allowing customers to select the right platform for their development
stage and production scale.

The defining feature of the series is a consistent formulation environment at every
scale. NanoCalibur® Mini to Lab and to GMP uses the same microfluidic mixing pattern,
with the same structure and dimensions. Rather than redesigning the mixer or changing
the formulation conditions as production grows, NanoCalibur® increases throughput
by parallelizing identical mixing units. This design is intended to reduce the need
for process re-optimization during scale-up and technology transfer, while preserving
nanoparticle quality and batch-to-batch reproducibility.

**Protecting payload integrity at scale**

In large-scale nanoparticle manufacturing, the high flow rates required for throughput
can generate shear forces that damage sensitive payloads such as mRNA and reduce
the potency. The NanoCalibur® Series is engineered to maintain stable shear conditions
as production scales, helping preserve payload integrity and deliver consistent 
nanoparticle quality. More importantly, preserving payload potency will have the
high potential to reduce the dose required for therapeutic effect, possibly addressing
the high-dosage toxicity such as LNPs.

**Launch promotion**

To mark the launch of NanoCalibur® Mini, MEPSGEN will run a series of promotional
offers through the end of the year for research institutions and pharmaceutical 
and biotechnology companies evaluating the system. Details will be announced on 
the MEPSGEN website and the company’s official LinkedIn page.

"With NanoCalibur® Mini, we have extended our product lineup so that we can support
customers more precisely at every stage, from early research through GMP manufacturing,"
said YongTae Kim, CEO of MEPSGEN. "We will continue to broaden the applications 
and customer base of the NanoCalibur® Series and strengthen our position in the 
global nanomedicine manufacturing market."

**About MEPSGEN**

MEPSGEN is a biotech company headquartered in Seoul, South Korea, with office in
Cambridge, MA. The company was co-founded in 2019 by current CEO YongTae (Tony) 
Kim and **Professor Robert Langer from MIT**, a world-renowned expert in drug delivery
and biomaterials who has pioneered numerous breakthroughs in controlled-release 
systems.

The company specializes in microphysiological system (MPS) and drug delivery system
platforms based on its proprietary microfluidics technology. Its NanoCalibur® Series
offers scalable nanoparticle formulation systems that support drug discovery, preclinical
research, and GMP manufacturing, while its MPS platforms, including the MEPS-X Series
and ProMEPS®, recreate the physiological function of human organs for New Approach
Methodologies (NAMs). Together, they help pharmaceutical and biotech companies, 
universities, hospitals, and research institutions improve the efficiency and success
rate of drug development.
