A winning combination: The benefits of micronization and containment in a single installation

Pharmaceutical Technology

This, coupled with small pharma companies being unable to acquire or access containment capabilities in-house, means that the demand for innovative specialized small molecule capabilities remains high. Premium specialized equipment is necessary because high containment facilities call for the separation of the operator from the product.

Small molecule API: Shining a spotlight on new innovations in milling

Pharmaceutical Technology

Evidence suggests that API manufacturing is gaining in complexity, as well as sophistication, and therefore adding to the risk profile of drug development. The ingredients used in these drugs are high potency, even at small doses, and pose a risk to both human health and cross-contamination with other drugs in a manufacturing environment.
