Zielsetzung
We kindly invite you to the “Capsule Technology School”, an exclusive workshop on state of the art know-how of the different topics of central importance. On the first day, you will get among others an overview of the manufacture and development of hard capsule formulations and raw materials. Day two will be dedicated to the diverse filling technologies and the pharmaceutical application of these techniques. Pharmacists and suppliers will share their expert knowledge in their presentations for example on inhalation products, filling of liquids, containment as well as on the latest capsule filling technologies. Additionally, you will be trained on selected aspects of trouble shooting as well as on the implementation of GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) in regard of scale-up and Qualification/Validation.
Hintergrund
Capsules offer a flexible Drug Delivery System and, thanks to the rapid development in the pharmaceutical industry, there are always new perspectives to be discovered. Especially in the combination of medicinal product and dosage form, many aspects of the manufacture - both technical and economic - play a significant role: expiring patents, increasing health expenditure, economic insecurities characterize the pharmaceutical industry on the one hand. On the other hand, the progress made in research and development - such as the availability of highly-potent APIs and innovative new production processes - are sustainably changing the business area.
Zielgruppe
This course addresses specialists and executives working in the fields of pharmaceutical manufacture, research and development and quality control, as well as engineers, project/facility engineers, especially those involved in the implementation of new monitoring methods, risk-based scale-up models and process technology for capsule filling processes. The conference is also of interest for suppliers of excipients used for capsules.
