Lyophilization, also referred to as freeze-drying, is a complex process that removes water from the drug product to preserve the product’s chemical and physical integrity. In this blog, we will ...

Freeze drying, lyophilization, and cryodesiccation are all terms used to describe the process of removing water from a sample at low temperature. This low-temperature dehydration process maximizes ...

Lyophilization is a complex operation used to prepare stable pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical products through freeze-drying. During lyophilization, the water fraction of the product is reduced to ...

Researchers are advancing freeze-drying techniques to keep mRNA-lipid nanoparticles (mRNA-LNPs) potent at higher temperatures, reducing the need for ultra-cold storage. These optimized processes can ...

Equipment and Processing Report talked to Aridis Pharmaceuticals (San Jose, CA) to find out when spray drying might be a reasonable alternative to lyophilization. Lyophilization, or freeze drying, is ...

A technology roadmap aims to drive and consolidate improvements in a process that has remained unchanged for more than 70 years. Lyophilization, or freeze drying, was a crucial development in ...

Approximately one-third of the unique biologicals in the FDA’s purple book are lyophilized, according to a recent paper. That includes (in 2020) nearly a quarter of monoclonal antibodies. Trends ...

Molecular diagnostic assay development and design is no simple task, and several factors affect the performance and usability of a test. Diagnostic companies can enhance assay stability and ...

This course teaches best practices in the design of lyophilization processes for biopharmaceutical products and formulations. The course describes pitfalls to avoid when designing lyophilization ...
