The Impact of Polymer Mixture Composition on the Properties of Electrospun Membranes for Drug…
Orally dispersible films (ODFs) prepared by an electrospinning are a novel type of pharmaceutical formulation. This dosage form has the potential to be beneficial for small children and the elderly, who can have problems with administration of classical tablets due to the increased risk of choking…

Comparison of Mini-Tablets and Pellets as Multiparticulate Drug Delivery Systems for Controlled Drug…
Mini-tablets made into hard capsules or administered using special dosing units, as well as pellets in hard capsules or compressed into tablets, offer the advantages of multiparticulate drug delivery systems and are suitable for controlled drug release using polymer coatings. Four different kinds of…

Segregation of Formulated Powders in Direct Compression Process and Evaluations by Small Bench-Scale…
Powder segregation can cause severe issues in processes of pharmaceutical drugs for control of content uniformity if the powder is likely to be free or easy flowing. Assessing segregation intensity of formulated powders in a process is challenging at the formulation stage because of the limited…

Evaluation of a Three-Fluid Nozzle Spraying Process for Facilitating Spray Drying of Hydrophilic…
Abstract
Amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) enable formulations to improve the solubility of poorly soluble active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). The amorphous state is reached through the disruption of the crystalline lattice of an API resulting in an increased apparent solubility with faster…

Guar gum as a microbially degradable component for an oral colon delivery system based on a…
Oral colon delivery has widely been pursued exploiting naturally occurring polysaccharides degraded by the resident microbiota. However, their hydrophilicity may hinder the targeting performance. The aim of the present study was to manufacture and evaluate a double-coated delivery system leveraging…

A Shrewd Ingenious Approach of Oral Drug Delivery of Insulin for the Amelioration of Diabetic…
Since 1922, insulin has saved the lives of countless people. However, the difficulties of subcutaneous administration, the need for frequent glucose self-monitoring, and the non-physiological action profiles of insulin prompted many medical professionals and patients to ask fornon-injectable insulin…

Image-based simultaneous particle size distribution and concentration measurement of powder blend…
Abstract
This work presents a system, where deep learning was used on images captured with a digital camera to simultaneously determine the API concentration and the particle size distribution (PSD) of two components of a powder blend. The blend consisted of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and calcium…

Extemporaneous preparation of paediatric oral formulations with sildenafil citrate
The paediatric population is composed of several very diferent subgroups, each with its own specifc characteristics. For this reason, children cannot be considered “small adults”. The development of formulations suitable for children is a complex process, as it must consider the physiological…

Challenges in the Transfer and Scale-Up of Mini-Tableting: Case Study with Losartan Potassium
Mini-tablets (MTs) with losartan potassium were developed to treat the rare disease Epidermolysis Bullosa. The focus was placed on transfer and scale-up of a direct compressible formulation from the compaction simulator STYL’One Evo (CS) to the rotary tablet press Korsch XM 12 (RP). Transfer of…
