Adopting a Quality by Design (QbD) approach for wet granulation requires manufacturers to comprehend the correlation between process variables, such as powder characteristics and equipment ...

The course enables attendees to apply the theory learnt in the taught sessions, and also to directly observe the effect of formulation on product properties, and relate the theory to the practice of ...

Pharmaceutical research and development (R&D) and industry require a continuous fluid-bed dryer that provides a lengthy process time and delivers a high standard for a long time. This article ...

Continuous processing as described by the regulatory agencies is the pharmaceutical industry’s area of focus in order to enhance product quality and productivity. It is essential to understand the ...

The authors examine the use of a hypromellose-based product as an excipient in a controlled release formulation using direct-compression tableting. Direct compression (DC) is becoming a preferred ...

Compressed tablets are the most widely used solid dosage form so they must satisfy a number of physical requirements in terms of hardness, disintegration ability, friability and uniformity. Compressed ...

Granulation is a critical unit operation in pharmaceutical manufacturing, where fine powders are agglomerated into granules to improve flow properties, uniformity, and compaction performance. The ...

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 ...
