AbstractThe broader impact/commercial potential of this I-Corps project is the exploration of sugar based microparticles for accelerating metabolism in immunotherapies. This proposed technology is a drug delivery vehicle that can transport the drug of interest to immune cells, for which the healthcare and oncology industry can make use of. The drug delivery vehicle is constituted from a metabolite, allowing for increased energy levels of cells. This would be important for showing how metabolic pathways
