  • The quest for other alternatives to cigarettes has brought Big Tobacco to the door of biotech company Lexaria.
  • The bioscience potential for nicotine delivery cannot be ignored and may deliver myriad benefits.
  • Lexaria’s proprietary DehydraTECH technology makes the company an ideal partner.
