Orodispersible Films: Current Innovations and Emerging Trends
Abstract
Orodispersible films (ODFs) are thin, mechanically strong, and flexible polymeric films that are designed to dissolve or disintegrate rapidly in the oral cavity for local and/or systemic drug delivery. This review examines various aspects of ODFs and their potential as a drug delivery…

Loss-on-Drying Prediction for a Vibrated Fluidised Bed Dryer by Means of Mass and Energy Balances
Abstract
Purpose
Continuous wet granulation and drying require an adequate process control strategy to ensure the product quality. The most important critical quality attributes of dried granules are the granule size distribution and moisture content. Process analytical technologies (PATs) are…

Low melting mixtures: Neoteric green solvents for flavor formulation
Abstract
Flavors are considered among the most valuable ingredients in any formula. However, aromatic substances are volatile and can be lost during processing and storage. Thus, it is beneficial to develop strategies for their retention in formulations. The aim of the present study was to evaluate…
