Lyophilized beads are spheres made of lyophilized material containing a certain concentration of selected components. They are a very versatile system that provides long term stability, quick reconstitution, and easy handling.
Read MoreIn lyophilized drug and biological products, crystallization of ice and excipients impart stresses on the walls of the vial which can be detected with a strain gauge. During the freezing process of lyophilization, there can be significant sample loss from vial breakage leading to loss of process control and additional cleaning expenses.
Read MoreThe rigidity (stiffness) of the substrate to which cells adhere can have a profound effect on cell propagation, differentiation, lineage specification, gene expression, morphology, self-renewal, pluripotency and migration.
Read MoreThis webinar will highlight the influence of controllable factors such as ice nucleation temperature and post nucleation shelf-cooling rate on the primary drying rate, dry product resistance and porous structure characterized by pore size distribution, specific surface area and X-ray microCT imaging.
Read MoreThe MicroFD by Millrock Technology offers unique features for freeze drying practitioners. Few vials are processed, thus minimizing the cost of process development and shortening the stages of batch preparation & loading, condenser defrosting, etc.
Read MoreVial fogging is a phenomenon commonly observed in lyophilized biologic drug products and has been widely reported in the pharmaceutical industry. The appearance of vial fogging presents as a haze of dried powder which is visible above where the dried cake meets the inner surface of the vials.
Read MoreIn the freeze drying world, most of the work and literature published is related to vial freeze drying and does not touch on some of the differences that are only seen when working with bulk materials. This webinar will highlight some of the most common challenges users face when freeze drying bulk material as well as some of the features that users should be attentive to when selecting a freeze dryer to be used in a bulk application.
Read MoreAccelerate your lyophilized drug development by de-risking your primary packaging selection. Physical and chemical properties of a container closure system for parenterals may affect the drug manufacturing process, product quality and patient safety. In the case of a lyophilized product, the risks are mainly associated with design for manufacturability and impact on product quality.
Read MoreThe emergence of cell and gene therapies and new COVID-19 vaccines brings the promise of treating some of the most challenging diseases. Storage, transport, and delivery of these breakthrough therapies for safe clinical use has its own set of challenges.
Read MoreAntibody drug conjugates (ADCs) are antibodies equipped with a small number of chemotherapeutic molecules with the aid of a linker system. They have grown in importance because the antibody targets specific cells where they drop off their payload of chemotherapeutic molecules. This is a huge advantage to chemotherapy.
