NMIMS SPPSPTM’s Dr Sarika Wairkar Granted Patent for Her Research Work on Mupirocin

Dr. Sarika Wairkar, Associate Professor at SVKM’s NMIMS Shobhaben Pratapbhai Patel School of Pharmacy & Technology Management (popularly known as SPPSPTM), has recently been granted the Indian patent No. 408059 for her research work titled- ‘Topical Foam Composition Comprising Mupirocin’.

Her invention is related to the foam formulation of Mupirocin - a commonly used topical antibiotic in traumatic skin lesions and burn wounds. Currently, Mupirocin is commercially available as a cream formulation which needs to be applied by touching the skin or wound surface. 

Dr. Sarika Wairkar from SPPSPTM has prepared Mupirocin foam for topical application with quick collapse time, good spreadability, and superior antibacterial efficacy. It can be easily applied to the desired area without touching the wound. After the successful conduct of clinical trials, it has been established that this formulation can be used as an alternative to the conventional topical dosage form.

Furthermore,  Dr Sarika Wairkar, Associate Professor, SPPSPTM, NMIMS, has clarified that this formulation was designed considering severe pain and infection of critical wounds, especially burn wounds where the application of medicine is a difficult task. As a result, this formulation may substantially help in the management of chronic wounds.

On this occasion, the Dean of SPPSPTM, Dr Bala Prabhakar spoke about the school’s continued thrust on ground-breaking research. For people unversed, SPPSPTM was established under the aegis of SVKM’s NMIMS in 2006 as a pharmacy school, offering doctoral, postgraduate, graduate and diploma programmes in pharmaceutical sciences. The school is a pioneer in introducing integrated programmes in pharmacy and technology management.
