A Guide to Particulate Science in Pharmaceutical Product Development, 2nd Edition (EPUB)

by Margaret D. Louey, Timothy M. Crowder, Anthony J. Hickey
The pharmaceutical applications of powder technology have long been recognized. Yet while many books focus on aspects of powder formation and behavior, there are few texts that explore the power of particulate science in the design, manufacture, and control of quality medicines. This revision discusses key principles and practical applications. The authors cover particulate material, its form and production, sampling from bodies of powder, particle size descriptors and statistics, behavior of particles and powder, instrumental analysis, particle size measurement and synergy of adopted techniques, and in vitro and in vivo performance criteria. Case studies are included in this new edition. This fully revised edition:
