Continuous manufacturing

In this study, drug-cyclodextrin (CD) complexes were prepared using hot liquid extrusion (HLE) process with an aim to improve solubility and bioavailability of carbamazepine. Saturation solubility studies of CBZ in water and different pH media showed a pH-independent solubility. Phase solubility…

In recent years, significant progress has been made in the field of continuous twin screw granulation. However, only limited knowledge is currently available on the impact of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) properties on granule quality and processability. In this study, the response behavior…

This study provides the results of investigation on scaling approaches for three differently-sized continuous granulation lines, each consisting of a twin screw wet granulation process and a continuous fluid bed drying process. To check the initial scaling approach with regard to granule and tablet…

Continuous Manufacturing (CM) of pharmaceutical drug products is a new approach within the pharmaceutical industry. In the presented paper, a GMP continuous wet granulation line for production of solid dosage forms was investigated. The line was composed of the subsequent continuous unit: operations…

When one wishes to convert a batch based manufacturing process of an existing tablet product to a continuous process, there are several available strategies which can be adopted. Theoretically, the most straightforward way would be to proceed with the corresponding processing principles, for example…
