Pharmaceutical manufacturing practices are advancing towards a future in which continuous manufacturing processes will be the norm. Developing and applying such techniques is therefore an essential ...

Formulating drugs to ensure therapeutic consistency, enable rapid development, and allow for cost-effective scale-up has become increasingly challenging. This is especially true in the context of ...

In dry granulation, powders bind because of the application of mechanical stress. As particles are forced to be within closer proximity, entrained air is forced out, bulk density increases, and a ...

Twin-screw granulation process insight is growing as researchers employ new analytical technologies and investigate new ways to use the equipment. The range of applications for twin-screw extruders as ...

Spatial filter techniques, along with delivering real-time particle size measurement, offer several further attractions such as simple hardware requirements, ease of use and reasonable commercial cost ...

Fluidized bed spray granulation is a versatile process that integrates the controlled spraying of a binder liquid onto fluidized particles, leading to the formation of agglomerates or granules with ...

Small molecules, tablets, capsules, soft gels, effervescence, gummies, and pills. These are all oral solid dosage (OSD) forms, a term that refers to a final drug product therapy that is ingested ...

Troy, Alabama-based KW Plastics is a large recycler of postconsumer high-density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene (PP) and other scrap materials. The company also produces products made of ...

As new analytical technologies advance, insight into the twin-screw granulation process is growing. The range of applications for twin-screw extruders as pharmaceutical manufacturing equipment—either ...
