Drug Formulation and characterization using Electron Microscopy

Drug formulations are a critical aspect of pharmaceutical science, encompassing the various forms in which medications are prepared and administered to achieve optimal therapeutic effects. The design and development of these formulations are guided by a complex interplay of factors, including the physicochemical properties of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), the intended route of administration, patient compliance, and the desired release profile. Electron microscopy makes it possible to characterize a variety of attributes in drug formulations to help ensure quality and efficacy.

 

Learn about drug formulation types, critical quality attributes of drug formulations, and how SEM has emerged as a pivotal tool in the characterization of drug formulations.
