Freeze-Drying Lyophilization of Pharmaceutical and Biological Products
edited by Louis Rey and Joan C. May
This up-to-the-minute reference highlights the application of freeze-drying to pharmaceuticals—illustrating practical and industry-tested methods of preserving and reactivating delicate biologicals and biochemicals.
Written by over 20 international researchers, including both pure theoreticians and experienced technical experts, Freeze-Drying/Lyophilization of Pharmaceutical and Biological Products:
explains the lyophilization process step by step, from vacuum sublimation (primary drying) and desorption (secondary drying) to frozen storage and reconstitution
analyzes the behavior of complex molecules, such as proteins, in cryogenic processes
summarizes the extensive research on the key role of water in different phases and processes such as macromolecule—water and biopolymer—water interactions
describes technologies such as X-ray diffraction, nuclear paramagnetic resonance, electron scanning microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetry, and thermoluminescence
explores effects of varying temperatures and rates of freezing on crystal structure
examines factors such as electric properties of frozen solutions
demonstrates computer and quantum simulations of molecular dynamics
evaluates new designs for semicontinuous and continuous freeze-drying that produces frozen, free-flowing, spherical granulates
and more!
Containing over 800 references, tables, diagrams, equations, drawings, and photographs, Freeze-Drying/Lyophilization of Pharmaceutical and Biological Products is indispensable for pharmacists; organic, medicinal, physical, and surface and colloid chemists; microbiologists and virologists; molecular and cell biologists; and graduate students in these disciplines.
