Pharmaterials provide a complete inhalation development service for the PII group. The offering includes physical from selection, micronisation, amorphous content determination, formulation of DPIs and pMDIs and GMP manufacture of clinical materials.
To strengthen the service further Pharmaterials have purchased the TRV high speed blending unit, featuring a single, bottom driven impeller drive. It is particularly suitable for the rapid batch blending of small quantities of pharmaceutical active ingredients with base excipients, typical of inhalable products. By combining the high surface area of the main impeller blade with the directional effects of the feeder blade, rapid, homogeneous and stable blends can be produced in a reproducible manner.
Professor Graham Buckton, Chief Executive of Pharmaterials said “We have outstanding scientists with many years of industrial experience in inhalation who have the ability to provide excellent formulations with rapid development times. We can provide the highest level of integrated service in materials science, formulation, manufacture and in vitro testing and we will continue to strengthen this. It is fitting that we also have an excellent GMP manufacturing facility with the best equipment needed for manufacture of inhalation products”. |
