Pharma Excipients & Roquette present the new webinar:

Solving capping challenges using mannitol as an excipient model

Date & Time:

Jun 27, 2023 03:00 PM CET, 9:00 AM EST

Description:

During drug development formulators are focusing on Improving patient compliance, enhancing production efficiency on top of developing a robust and stable API formulation.

This complex environment could lead to compromising on certain things such as:

Tablet size and shape
API loading in the tablet
Manufacturing speed

The solution we developed, unlocks higher active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) loading, allows smaller tablet intake and faster product output with a lowered risk of tablet capping or instability.

In this webinar we will:

Elaborate about key criteria leading to capping
How to design an ultimate excipient for direct compression
Share case studies

Speakers: Dr. Olaf Häusler & Antoine Billa

Global Pharma Technical Application Specialist·Roquette

Soon after studying Pharmacy, I entered Roquette, always in technical and customer centric positions. Therefore, I discovered and liked the big world of carbohydrates with endless possibilities. My social interests, caused by the PhD topics, are cyclodextrins and modified starches. Today I participate in different internal projects and stay available for all technical requests from outside. Centres of interest are oral and parenteral formulations of small macules and some biopharma formulation topics.
