Abstract Purpose A near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopic method was developed for real time analysis of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in blends from a continuous manufacturing process. The sampling and analytical errors of these determinations were estimated through variographic analysis. Methods Thirty-three calibration blends were prepared in laboratory scale equipment with a concentration range spanning from 70 to 130% of API target concentration. The NIR calibration model was...

Abstract With the implementation of quality by design (QbD), critical attributes of raw material (drug substance and excipients) are of significantly importance in pharmaceutical manufacturing process. It is desirable for the quality control of critical material attributes (CMAs) of excipients to ensure the quality of end product. This paper explored the feasibility of an at-line method for the quantitative analysis of hydroxypropoxy group in hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) with near...

Abstract This study aimed to apply quality risk management based on the The International Conference on Harmonisation guideline Q9 for the early development stage of hot melt coated multiparticulate systems for oral administration. N-acetylcysteine crystals were coated with a formulation composing tripalmitin and polysorbate 65. The critical quality attributes (CQAs) were initially prioritized using failure mode and effects analysis. The CQAs of the coated material were defined as particle...

In the pharmaceutical industry, dextrose is used as an active ingredient in parenteral solutions and as an inactive ingredient (excipient) in tablets and capsules. In order to address the need for more sophisticated analytical techniques, we report our efforts to develop enhanced identification methods to screen pharmaceutical ingredients at risk for adulteration or substitution using field-deployable spectroscopic screening. In this paper we report our results for a study designed to evaluate...

he principal component of many solid pharmaceutical formulations and indeed of dry powder inhalers, rather than being an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), is most likely to be lactose. It is an excipient that fulfils a number of functions including those of diluent, flow-aid and API carrier.
