In addition to the process for material placement extensively described, participants will gain experience through hand on laboratory projects/demonstrations. By doing so, the participant is given both the knowledge and experience to choose both ingredients and process to meet the challenges in formulation development. The experimental planning process is reviewed with examples to develop and verify the design space and justify performance. This enables the participants to make statistically sound and safe process and formulation decisions.The program concludes with key aspects of scale Up and technical transfers and risk elimination. Examples, evaluation, problem-solving and regulatory constraints are discussed at each stage.
Formal sessions of the course are supplemented with demonstrations of relevant machinery including Tablet Presses, High Shear Mixers / Granulators, Fluid Bed Dryers/Processors, Mills, Mixers, Roller Compactors and Coaters/Coating Pans.
