Excipients

Pharmaceutical excipients, which can be functional or inactive ingredients, work to enhance the medically relevant properties of the API. When used to promote ingredient qualities, excipients can be an asset for formulators to increase stability, bulk up the formulation, or enhance the therapeutic effects of the API. Below you can explore helpful resources including editorial coverage and webinars related to pharmaceutical excipients.

Chiral Separation and Enantiomeric Analysis: Critical Importance in Pharmaceutical Development
Chiral separation has become a cornerstone of modern pharmaceutical development as the industry increasingly recognizes that enantiomers of chiral drugs can exhibit dramatically different biological activities, safety profiles, and therapeutic effects. The regulatory landscape has evolved to strongly favor single enantiomer development over racemic... read more

Hydroxypropyl Cellulose for Orally Disintegrating Film Drug Application
Hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) is a water-soluble polymer that has film formation properties with excellent plasticity. Its hydroxypropyl groups drive the solubilization of the cellulose thus hindering the hydrogen bonding of the hydroxyl groups. In this study, we evaluated the applicability and effectiveness of HPC in Orally ... read more
