Solving the Silicone Challenge in Pre-fillable Syringes

Example of how we offer creative and interesting solutions to our customers to improve efficiency in production.

We want to inform our customers that we have an excellent tech center available to assist them to develop together tailor-made solutions and personalized technologies, solve problems and complete hands-on training on our machines.

Highlighting the importance for our clients to prepurchase multi-year maintenance contracts, in order to avoid their machines breaking or stopping to work suddenly and unexpectedly, to minimize the risk of interrupted production and emergency maintenance costs.

Lipid nanoparticle (LNP) formulation development begins on a small scale, often with homemade or benchtop setups, using syringe pumps and easily accessible micro-mixing systems. Once a promising formulation has been identified, the next step is to transition to standardized large-scale impingement mixing systems, such as the high flow T-mixing pumps that were used to produce the COVID-19 vaccines (Sealy 2021). Formulators need to consider a number of factors when scaling up novel LNP systems. These include flow rates that affect LNP particles, solvent removal, risk factors when changing equipment, and the impact of tangential flow filtration sensitivity. In this technical note, we discuss these factors and what needs to be considered when developing a cost- and time efficient large-scale process.

A must-read for anyone in the industry looking to enhance their micronization processes. Discover how adding low percentages of SYLOID® mesoporous silica can significantly improve the run time and yield of jet milling processes for hard-to-process Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs). Imagine achieving a more consistent feed rate and a homogenous final product simply by pre-blending SYLOID® mesoporous silica with your APIs. Grace & Microsize conducted experiments that reveal substantial improvements in both run time and yield, making this paper an essential guide for professionals aiming to optimize their manufacturing processes and boost efficiency and feed rate consistency.
