Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a fabrication method for formulating pharmaceutical or other bioaffecting agents in small batches or individual forms using a computer-guided system capable of varying parameters and storing the information so that those parameters used in prototyping may be reproduced during fabrication of quantities of any amount. The system is further capable of interfacing with a computer-based learning system. A fabrication method to rapidly fabricate different prototypes of drug delivery systems, medical devices, pharmaceutical dosage forms, tissue scaffolds or other bioaffecting agents in small batches or individual forms using a computer-guided system to vary the composition and structure in order to optimize the product and the manufacturing process. The process is immediately scalable. An Expert System can be used with the method to recommend different compositions and designs of the prototypes, devices, dosage forms, tissue scaffold or other bioaffecting agents.
