Applications of thermal analysis and coupled techniques in pharmaceutical industry
TLDR
The current use of thermal analysis and combined techniques in research and development and in production is reviewed and the advantage of commercially coupled techniques to thermogravimetry is emphasized with some examples.Abstract:
Thermal analysis methods are well-established techniques in research laboratories of pharmaceutical industry. The robustness and sensitivity of instrumentation, the introduction of automation and of reliable software according to the industrial needs widened considerably the areas of applications inthe last decade. Calibration of instruments and validation of results follow the state of the art of cGMP as for other analytical techniques. Thermal analysis techniques are especially useful for the study of the behavior of the poly-phasic systems drug substances and excipients and find a unique place for new delivery systems. Since change of temperature and moisture occur by processing and storage, changes of the solid state may have a considerable effect on activity, toxicity and stability of compounds. Current requirements of the International Conference of Harmonisation for the characterization and the quantitation of polymorphism in new entities re-enforce the position of thermal analysis techniques. This challenging task needs the use of complementary methods. Combined techniques and microcalorimetry demonstrate their advantages. This article reviews the current use of thermal analysis and combined techniques in research and development and in production. The advantage of commercially coupled techniques to thermogravimetry is emphasized with some examples.read more

Solid dispersion of poorly water‐soluble drugs: Early promises, subsequent problems, and recent breakthroughs
TL;DR: Commercial use of solid dispersion systems during the past four decades has been very limited, primarily because of manufacturing difficulties and stability problems, but this has been changing in recent years because of the availability of surface-active and self-emulsifying carriers and the development of technologies to encapsulate solid dispersions directly into hard gelatin capsules as melts.
