β-Lactoglobulin-based amorphous solid dispersions
Abstract
Proteins have recently caught attention as potential excipients for amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) to improve oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs. Notably, the studies have highlighted whey protein isolates, particularly β-lactoglobulin (BLG), as promising candidates in…

Effects of buffers on spray-freeze-dried/lyophilized high concentration protein formulations
Abstract
Solid-state protein formulations are known to exhibit enhanced storage stability compared to their liquid dosage form counterparts. pH is one of the factors affecting the stability of protein formulations. The pH of protein formulations in the solution could be influenced by the buffer…
