Calcium Phosphates

Abstract The administration of veterinary medicines via drinking water or feed ingredients is a widely adopted method in intensive livestock and poultry farming due to its convenience and cost-effectiveness. Among these drugs, antimicrobials are extensively used, with over 70% of global…

Introduction There are several approaches in order to develop tablet formulations. On the one hand, high functionality excipients that follow the concept “API+1” offer many advantages like easier handling, higher compactability and they combine synergistic effects. In addition, they eliminate the…

Abstract It is widely believed that compaction simulators can replicate the uniaxial compression process of a roller compactor. The correction factor (Kp) is a parameter used to adjust a mathematical model for compaction simulation to obtain the same product relative density, therefore accounting…

Abstract Roller compaction/dry granulation (RC/DG) is a key process in pharmaceutical manufacturing for improving powder flowability, density, and segregation resistance. Advanced statistical modeling was used to optimize RD/DG process parameters and subsequently binder compositions by employing…

Abstract This study aims to decouple the effect of dwell time and strain rate on tablet strength and cracking behavior. Using a hydraulic compaction simulator, dwell time and strain rate were isolated from other parameters in the compaction cycle so that their independent contributions to…
