DSC Characterization of Crystalline Structure in Foods and Pharmaceuticals (Part 1 of 3)
DSC Characterization of Crystalline Structure in Foods and Pharmaceuticals Part 1 Overview The determination of the crystalline structure that exists in a pharmaceutical material is critical to fully understanding the inherent properties of the resultant drug. The crystal structure can influence the drug’s properties, such as stability and dissolution rates, as well as impact the…
Designing New Materials for Additive Manufacturing: Vat Photopolymerization
Designing New Materials for Additive Manufacturing: Vat Photopolymerization Overview 3D printing, or additive manufacturing (AM), provides opportunities to create previously unattainable geometric objects through layer-by-layer fabrication. Novel macromolecular structures and synthetic methods coupled with unique printing methods lead to 3D part generation with micron-scale resolution and tunable to emerging technologies. By tuning polymer structure, printing…
Long Term Stability Analysis of Monoclonal Antibodies
Long Term Stability Analysis of Monoclonal Antibodies Overview Characterization of biopharmaceuticals during all development phases is critical to the candidate selection process and the ongoing production of the active material. Some recent efforts to achieve patient self-administration has required high API concentrations (100-300 mg/mL). Development concerns for the high concentration formulations are denaturation, aggregation…
Multi – Specimen Fatigue ElectroForce 3300 from TA Instruments
Now available from TA Instruments is the best in multi-specimen fatigue testing in stent materials and more is the ElectroForce Series Multi-Specimen Fatigue system for the 3300 and 3200 load test frame systems. Both systems include the enhanced measurement capability of the TA ElectroForce High Accuracy Displacement Sensor. This enables an even wider range of…
Evolved Gas Analysis: TGA/FTIR
Evolved Gas Analysis: TGA/FTIR Overview Interested in detecting and identifying the presence of residual solvents in your formulation? Would you like to determine the thermal decomposition mechanism of your material? Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) directly measures weight change of a material as it is heated over a temperature range in a controlled atmosphere. If observing a…
Stability Testing of Energetic Materials by Isothermal Microcalorimetry
Stability Testing of Energetic Materials by Isothermal Microcalorimetry Overview This webinar introduces the use of isothermal microcalorimetry for stability measurement of energetic materials. Energetic materials refer to materials, chemicals and substances which exhibit a risk for self-decomposition associated with self-heating ultimately resulting in run-way reactions. Such materials include propellants, percarbonates and peroxides, and these…
