This article presents guided wave radar level measurement as an acceptable, less expensive alternate to load cell systems. By David Ladoski and Dan Klees
A chemical industry company working to provide emission control technology for the natural environment sources a containment solution for its automotive business.
Innovative companies are now applying industry-specific Smart Manufacturing solutions to reduce time to value and improve efficiency and asset utilization while ensuring product and data integrity, regulatory compliance and safety.
How a proactive approach involving predictive — rather than preventive — tools to identify deficiencies before they compound and become actual problems can result in a healthy bioprocessing facility.
Zydis® fast dissolve formulation for Zelapar® (Selegiline anti-Parkinson’s compound) had a positive impact on the patient compliance as compared to the Selegiline traditional tablets.
Among the many important components determining the effectiveness of a biosafety cabinet, the most critical is the air filter.
ALK-Abelló is a global research-driven pharmaceutical company that focuses on the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of allergies. Before ALK-Abelló partnered with Catalent, all marketed allergen immunotherapies were delivered by injection, resulting in a limited patient population and reduced patient adherence. Catalent worked with the client to apply Zydis Fast Dissolve Technology to their therapy. The overall result was a marked improvement in patient tolerability, preference and compliance.
Biopharmaceutical facilities continually experience the combined challenges of efficient, uninterrupted production, while maintaining consistent regulatory compliance. Daily manufacturing demands can promote actions such as short-term patches on deficiencies, retention of inefficient processes and technologies, deviation from SOPs, rushed expansions and/or process modifications, and potential problems being ignored.
Pharmatec Purified Water and Highly Purified Water Generation Systems are designed for the production of purified and highly purified water for pharmaceutical production. For the production of pure water the processes Reverse Osmosis (RO) and Electro deionization (EDI) are used. For the production of highly purified water Ultrafiltration is additionally used. All valid pharmaceutical (e. g. USP, EP, JP) and technical rules and standards (e. g. DIN, ASME, GMP and FDA / ISPE Guidelines) are followed and applied. For Pre-Treatment of potable water further steps like raw water ultrafiltration or water softening units can be used, depending on quality.
The latest version of the AFG stands for highest flexibility in sterile pharmaceutical powder filling into vials.
The sterilizer type ADV, is designed for use in the pharmaceutical and biotechnological industry for production, laboratory and R & D applications.
The sterilizer type SDR, is designed to sterilize liquids in open, semi sealed or 100% closed containers according to the steam-air mixture process. The big advantage of this process is a complete dry product at the end of the cycle.
The safe and reliable sterilization and depyrogenation of pre-cleaned containers is the most important pre-treatment step in the pharmaceutical process.
The requirements for minimizing the risk of bioburden and achieving a validated SAL (Sterility Assurance Level) of 10-6 reduction in the probability of viable microorganisms, are critical considerations in GMP fill/finish production of sterile products such as vaccines.
Digital density measurement is about to further evolve: With the new DMA 35™ from Anton Paar. The robust portable density meter needs only 2 mL of sample for the measurement and delivers results within seconds. Simplify your measurements in the field with DMA 35™.
