TEHRAN (ISNA)- Iran is exporting knowledge-based goods and services to other countries, said Director of Qeshm International Development Center Motahareh Hosseini.
Iraq, the UAE, Kuwait, Malaysia, Turkey and South Africa are the receiving services and products.

She added that the center will hold exhibitions inside and outside of the country, introduce capabilities and investment opportunities, hold technical conferences and seminars and visit different exhibitions across the world.

Iran has taken wide strides in science and technology, particularly in medical and medicinal fields, in recent years.

The country has already mass-produced Doxorubicin - a non-carcinogenic drug - used in lung and breast cancer cases and made based on nano-liposomes technique. The drug with higher efficiency needs lower times for use and naturally lessens side effects, including vascular and heart complications.

Iran has also produced two other non-carcinogenic medicines Paclitaxel for breast and ovarian cancer and oxaliplatin for colon cancer.

In September, Iranian researchers from Lorestan University succeeded in designing a new type of drug delivery system for anti-cancer drugs by using linear dendritic polymers and iron nanoparticles.
