Oral solid dose tablets on a continuous manufacturing line

Continuous OSD manufacturing and patient impact

FDA approved oral solid dosage (OSD) products are improving, changing and enhancing lives, via the use of a continuous manufacturing platform.

Solving biopharma design challenges with computational fluid dynamics

Computational fluid dynamics and cloud computing can make complex models more cost-effective and less time-consuming.

Passing through the barrier

Over the past decade, aseptic filling isolators have improved patient safety by use of barriers to isolate the point of filling from personnel. This industry-wide movement creates opportunities to further increase patient safety by minimizing viable and nonviable risks to the aseptic fill.

Strip the strip curtains in aseptic cleanrooms

Like most things, improvement happens naturally over time with the application of knowledge and the advancement of technology. This is particularly true for aseptic cleanrooms and even more so with respect to strip curtains. As cleanroom technology has evolved, we’ve developed a better understanding of how to—and how not to—maintain an aseptic environment.

To outsource or not to outsource? That is the question: How to ensure your CMO stacks up

How to choose a contract manufacturing organization

The age-old debate of whether to outsource production to a contract manufacturing organization (CMO) remains for mature, emerging and virtual biopharmaceutical companies.

Designing an OSD facility to protect drug products

Protecting OSD drug products from contamination during manufacturing is vitally important. Here’s how facility design can help. *As appeared in Tablets & Capsules – Solid Dose Digest, July 10, 2017

Importance of information sharing in cold chains

To ensure the quality of pharmaceutical raw materials and products, it is very important to monitor specific factors throughout the supply chain. In cold chains, temperature is closely controlled and monitored.

Building a thoughtful manufacturing supply chain

In the past 5 years, the biopharmaceutical industry has seen unprecedented change. Precipitated by the need to support a global client base with products that are more targeted, efficacious and cost-effective, the challenge to have a robust manufacturing supply chain is more crucial than ever to a company’s survival.

Understanding waste from a lean biopharmaceutical perspective

As pressure for biopharma manufacturers to cut costs continues to grow, implementing Lean and Six Sigma methodologies can eliminate waste and maximize profits.
