Giới thiệu DKD

HISTORY

DKD was established to develop and expand the successful research work of its founder, Đào Thị Kim Dung—who has spent more than 30 years pursuing independent scientific research with the aspiration to create effective biological pharmaceutical solutions.

Driven by concerns over the limitations in treating burns, chronic wounds, antibiotic resistance, and endocrine disorders, Ms. Đào Thị Kim Dung gradually built a proprietary technology platform for extracting phospholipid excipients from egg yolk using a solvent-free process—an innovation that opens new directions in regenerative medicine and drug delivery systems.

Two United States patents serve as the foundation for DKD’s integrated ecosystem of research, development, manufacturing, and technology transfer—aimed at bringing next-generation pharmaceutical technologies into real-world clinical practice and community healthcare.

From this core excipient platform, DKD has developed multiple derivative technologies with high applicability, spanning wound care, tissue regeneration, endocrine modulation, lipid metabolism support, and neural regulation—forming a sustainable, multi-application technological ecosystem.

Founder DKD
MESSAGE FROM THE FOUNDER
I believe that pharmaceutical science is not merely about formulas and molecules—it is about understanding the human body and giving it the opportunity to heal itself.
DUNG K. T. DAO
Founder & Principal Researcher

MISSION

DKD is committed to researching and developing biological excipients that are safe, effective, and biocompatible, while delivering advanced therapeutic solutions that are cost-efficient, reduce side effects, and are suitable for individual patient conditions.

We collaborate closely with patients, clinicians, and the medical community to shorten formulation development timelines, accelerate clinical application, and ultimately improve quality of life while reducing the burden of treatment.

PHILOSOPHY

“Science centered on human well-being” is the guiding principle behind every decision at DKD.

We believe medicine is not only about treating diseases, but about restoring the value of life. Every DKD product is developed based on deep patient understanding, real-world validation, and a commitment to precision, transparency, and integrity.

We remain dedicated to rigorous and human-centered science—avoiding trends, and never compromising quality for profit. Each formulation represents a convergence of knowledge, ethics, and social responsibility.
