Formulation

It is well established that the use of nanotechnology in medicine and more specifically drug delivery is spreading rapidly.

The techniques of laser diffraction and automated particle imaging support the fast, cost-effective development of nasal spray products, simultaneously providing the data required for regulatory compliance. This paper examines their application.

Abusers are finding ways to circumvent current abuse-deterrent measures, leaving companies in need of new strategies.

Prescription drug abuse has already reached epidemic proportions in the US – and other countries look set to follow the dangerous trend.

Taylor Dispersion measurements are used to monitor self-association and oligomeric state in a variety of buffer conditions.

The feel of a topical formulation can make a big difference to compliance.

In this paper, the authors describe the use of laser diffraction to analyse dry powder behaviour.

Paul Davies and Paul Kippax from Malvern Instruments examine how a QbD approach can inform analytical instrumentation design and manufacture...

In this article we look at the steps involved in moving from a drug substance to a successful oral solid dosage (OSD) form, and at the analytical technologies that can be helpful.

Dr Paul Kippax is looking at how recent innovations are enhancing the value and informational productivity of some of our analytical techniques.
