Process Analytical Technology for continuous manufacturing of solid-dosage forms
09 Jun 2023 | Contributor(s):: Fonteyne, Margot;, Vercrusysse, Jurgen, De Leersnyder, Fien, Van Snick, Bernd, Vervaet, Chris, Remon, Jean, De Beer, Thomas
Currently, pharmaceutical production is making the switch from batch processing towards continuous processing. The quality of intermediate and end products produced by batch processes is assured by off-line testing. It is obvious that off-line tests in analytical laboratories cancel out the...

Near infrared and Raman spectroscopy for the in-process monitoring of pharmaceutical production processes
09 Jun 2023 | Contributor(s):: De Beer, Thomas, Burggraeve, Anneleen, Fonteyne, Margot, Saerens, Lien, Remon, Jean Paul, Vervaet, Chris;
Within the Process Analytical Technology (PAT) framework, it is of utmost importance to obtain critical process and formulation information during pharmaceutical processing. Process analyzers are the essential PAT tools for real-time process monitoring and control as they supply the data from...

Integrating sensors for monitoring blend content in a pharmaceutical continuous manufacturing plant
09 Jun 2023 | Contributor(s):: Panikar, Savitha, Li, Jingzhe, Rane, Varsha, Gillam, Sean, Callegari, Gerardo, Kurtyka, Bogdan, Lee, Sau, Muzzio, Fernando
In a pharmaceutical manufacturing process, Critical Quality Attributes (CQAs) need to be monitored not only for the final product but also for intermediates. Blend uniformity of powders is one such attribute that needs to be measured to ensure the quality of the final product. Multiple in-line...

Assessment and prediction of tablet properties using transmission and backscattering Raman spectroscopy and transmission NIR spectroscopy
09 Jun 2023 | Contributor(s):: Peeters, Elisabeth, Tavares da Silva, Ana Filipa, Toiviainen, Maunu, Van Renterghem, Jeroen, Vercruysse, Jurgen, Juuti, Mikko, Lopes, Joao Almeida, De Beer, Thomas., Vervaet, Chris, Remon, Jean-Paul
This study investigated whether Raman and Near Infrared (NIR) spectroscopy could predict tablet properties. Granules were produced on a continuous line by varying granulation parameters. Tableting process parameters were adjusted to obtain uniform tablet weight and thickness. Spectra were...
