CEDAR PARK, Texas, Feb. 19, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Zeteo Biomedical LLC today announced the launch of its ZTech-P CygnusMR™ and CygnusSDX™ delivery devices, designed for precise, metered-unit dosing of dry powder drugs and biologics via systemic nasal and nose-to-brain administration.

Intranasal dry powder formulations offer significant advantages, including enhanced stability, extended shelf life, and improved bioavailability. Systemic nasal administration enables rapid, needle-free drug uptake, while nose-to-brain delivery bypasses the blood-brain barrier, allowing direct therapeutic access to the brain. The CygnusMR and CygnusSDX devices are designed for both patient self-administration and caregiver-assisted use, with configurations available for both adult and pediatric patients as well as a variety of animal species.
'The CygnusMR nasal delivery device is the industry's first cartridge-reloadable nasal powder delivery system, featuring onboard storage for up to six unit doses and a replaceable nasal tip,' said Timothy Sullivan, CEO of Zeteo Biomedical. 'Both the CygnusMR and CygnusSDX devices have undergone extensive analytical and in-vivo preclinical testing over the past several years to ensure optimal performance and reliability.'
Zeteo's intranasal delivery devices leverage proprietary packaging technology that utilizes a Form Fill Seal (FFS) flexible foil blister system, eliminating the supply chain constraints associated with traditional drug packaging methods such as syringes and glass vials. This innovative approach provides superior protection for pharmaceuticals and biologics while allowing for storage under room temperature, refrigerated, or frozen conditions. The scalable ZTech FFS packaging platform enables the high-volume production of millions of doses per day—a critical capability for the rapid, cost-effective deployment of vaccines and medical countermeasures on a global scale.
Zeteo Biomedical™ is a leading biomedical device technology company headquartered in Cedar Park, Texas. The company provides novel technology and technical services supporting the development and commercialization of drug/device combination products, and fill/finish packaging solutions for pharmaceuticals, biopharmaceuticals, biologics, and botanicals. Zeteo's technology applications include drug/device combination products for intranasal, nose-to-brain, ophthalmic, sublingual, and animal care applications.

Where the Sea Meets the Skin: Shapellx Unveils Innovative New OceanHug™ Collection Made from Oyster Shells
By GlobeNewswire Published on June 8, 2025, 18:00 IST ORLANDO, Fla., June 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Shapellx , a leading women's shapewear brand, proudly announces the launch of OceanHug™ – a seamless women's wear collection of intimates, outerwear, and shapewear pieces crafted with a first-of-its-kind fabric made from recycled oyster shells. The new sustainable, ocean-inspired collection enhances body contours while delivering the perfect balance of style, comfort, and sustainability. Every year, millions of pounds of oyster shells are discarded, eventually ending up in landfills. Shapellx believes that beauty should never come at the expense of the environment. Every OceanHug™ piece gives new purpose to 33 recycled oyster shells, integrating them into ethically produced, performance-driven fabrics. By turning marine waste into innovation, the collection represents a fresh take on circular fashion by finding a second life for shells that promotes innovation while reducing use of virgin materials. 'As sustainability becomes a top priority for both brands and consumers, Shapellx is proud to lead with innovative materials like oyster protein that combine environmental responsibility with performance-enhancing benefits,' said Shane Shi, Vice President of Shapellx. 'We're committed to delivering more sustainable alternatives without compromising on quality or comfort. OceanHug™ is just the beginning.' The lightweight yet form-fitting OceanHug™ yarn is engineered with breathable, moisture-wicking properties, feeling silky, cool, and comfortable to the touch. The fabric uniquely incorporates collagen peptides and oyster protein fiber, rich in amino acids and trace elements, which can help to nourish the skin and strengthen its barrier. OceanHug™ also offers antibacterial properties, reducing harmful bacteria growth by 2.56%, and is specially processed to be free from irritating chemicals, making it an excellent choice for those with sensitive skin. The new lineup, built with shapewear materials to hug and comfortably embrace the body, comes in soft hues of baby blue, lavender pink, oyster white, and more. The collection includes the following products: OceanHug™ Oyster Reborn Smoothing Bodysuit The delicate lace cup edges expand the coverage around the bust, enhancing the natural bust shape and curve. The waist and abdomen shaping works to tighten and smooth targeted areas for a comfortable, sculpted silhouette. Retails for $54 and is available in sizes S-XXL and colors black, brown, baby blue, oyster white, lavender pink and bright red. OceanHug™ Oyster Reborn T-Shirt Bra The OceanHug ™ Seamless Bra is made with high-elasticity yarn and butter-soft fabric for an ultimate comfort experience. The fixed one-piece cup design reduces the risk of cup-shifting for a supportive fit. The back closure is 7cm wide, compared to the traditional 3.5cm, providing better wraparound coverage and enhanced smoothing. Retails for $49 and is available in sizes S-3XL and colors black, brown, baby blue, oyster white, beige and lavender pink. OceanHug™ Oyster Reborn Smoothing Brief The briefs feature a mid-waist, hip-hugging seamless design for stable coverage, preventing unwanted digging and squeezing while delivering stretch to fit perfectly on all body types. Made from skin-friendly, soft modal fabric, it provides a gentle and refreshing touch on the skin. Retails for $9 and is available in sizes S-3XL and colors black, brown, baby blue, oyster white, beige and lavender pink. OceanHug™ Oyster Reborn Smoothing Cami The V-neckline highlights the collarbone, creating a feminine, flattering look. The built-in 3D molded cups comfortably lift and shape the bust for all-day support. It features an anti-slip grip at the bottom hem to prevent rolling and ensure a smooth, stable fit. The compression fabric around the waist and abdomen smooths the area and provides comfortable shaping. Retails for $49 and is available in sizes S-XXL and colors black, brown, baby blue, oyster white, beige and lavender pink. To celebrate both the OceanHug™ launch and World Ocean Day on June 8, Shapellx hosted a pop-up event in NoHo, New York.
