Characterization of Pharmaceutical Formulations
Quantification of ingredient
- API (also conformity, optical activity)
- Retardating agents, excipients
Homogenity of pharmaceutical formulation
- Inhomogenity, degree of distribution/ tablet decomposition
- Agglomeration behavior of excipients (phospholipids, liposomes, lecithin): mycelium formulation, solution properties, emulsifying behavior etc.
Aerosols and Inhalation Systems
- Release behavior of API from carrier materials and comparison of generic and originator formulations
- e.g. aerosols with API on lactose: Distinction agent – carrier to grain size of 2 µm
