Mike King, President of Broadleaf, stated: "We are pleased that our diligent efforts to widen the scope of Broadleaf’s business activity and revenue base are coming to fruition. Our goal is to enhance shareholder value and we believe that the Sustained Release acquisition will be positive in that regard."

Sustained Release has established a contract with Akina, Inc. relating to extended drug delivery systems.

Over the last two years the pharmaceutical sector has experienced the "patent cliff" wherein they have had major drugs pass out of patent protection without being replaced by an equal amount of newly approved and protected drugs. One of the many advantages of Akina's patent protected technology is that it provides pharmaceutical companies with the ability to dynamically compete with generic versions of their drugs.

Akina, Inc. is a research and development company known for developing unique methods for delivering medications. It was founded in 2001 by Kinam Park, Showalter Distinguished Professor of Biomedical Engineering and Professor of Pharmaceutics at Purdue University.

Akina Is a pioneer in the development of the long-term release microparticle formulations, also referenced as "Sustained Release Formulations", which have release durations ranging from one to eight months, and are designed to replace repeated daily, weekly or monthly administration of drugs for long-term care of diseases and disorders, thereby higher efficacy of the drug.

The Akina microparticles are programmable in release kinetics and ideal for release of active pharmaceutical ingredients for terms ranging from a few weeks to several months. They are inexpensive to produce, readily scalable for mass production, and offer a wide range of clinical applications.

Examples of current microparticle formulations under development at Akina address specific conditions such as macular degeneration, glaucoma, periodontal disease, and inflammation. Akina's hydrogel template method is highly unique in that the process does not include oil/water emulsion, and thus it allows controlled manipulation of the drug/polymer formulation which has not been possible by other methods.
