Dynamic Vapor Sorption (DVS): Examining the Interaction of water vapor with APIs and Pharmaceutical formulations investigation Kumar Jeetendra | January 6, 2022 The water vapor or absorbent properties of pharmaceutical products like excipients, packaging films and drug formulations are acknowledged as key aspects that determine their storage stability, processing, and performance. In accordance with the US Pharmacopeia, moisture is not considered to be an impurity. However, the presence of water in a drug must be monitored and …
Automated Water Analysis using Metrohm TitrIC Kumar Jeetendra | January 4, 2022 The requirement of water is very huge and decreasing water supplies, increasing government regulations (EPA, ISO, IS 10500:2012 norms), and community awareness compel industry to consider water reuse. Before water re-use, optimization for all process water streams and utility water streams must be identified, and their contaminants must be characterized. The streams can then be …
Sample Preparation for Analytical Quality Control – Solutions for Optimized Workflows and Accurate Results Kumar Jeetendra | January 4, 2022 A sample preparation is required before any analysis of complex samples. The sample preparation can be as simple as filtration or dilution, or it may require multiple steps. The selection of the right sample preparation method is crucial for reliable downstream measurements. Conventional methods require significant user intervention, can be time-consuming, and use large amounts …
