Manufacturing of Pharmaceuticals by Impregnation of an Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient onto a Mesoporous Carrier: Impact of Solvent and Loading

In this study, an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) was impregnated onto a mesoporous carrier (excipient) in a fluidized bed. Impregnating APIs in porous carriers has the potential to simplify the drug substance development process and leads to the elimination of the blending and granulation unit operations. Impregnation and drying occur simultaneously in fluidized-bed impregnation, and this method precludes several challenges encountered...
