4th European Conference on Pharmaceutics  - 20 - 21 March, 2023

Granutools' team will attend the 4th European Conference on Pharmaceutics

The 4th European Conference on Pharmaceutics will bring together experts in the field, including researchers, scientists, engineers, and clinicians, to present and discuss the latest developments in the field of pharmaceutics.

You will have the opportunity to attend a large range of presentations on fundamental research, formulation development, pharmaceutical ingredients, developing and processing equipment, analytical technologies, medicinal products, medical devices, contract manufacturing, regulatory frameworks, stability testing, in vitro-in vivo correlations, in-silico simulations, and many others.

Poster Presentation: How does the rheology of lactose powders influence the pharmaceutical tablets weight consistency?

Aurélien Neveu, Ph.D., Head of Laboratory and Applications at Granutools, will present a poster on how the rheology of lactose powders influences the pharmaceutical tablets weight consistency.

This poster examines the rheology of two lactose powders using a rotating drum method, with the GranuDrum, and how it correlates with tablet mass variability. The powders exhibit different rheological behavior: a shear-thickening and a shear-thinning, leading to an inversion of flowability classification at high stress state. The study demonstrates the importance of considering the rheological properties of the powder to get a relevant prediction of the tableting performance. Furthermore, this highlights the necessity to use a powder characterization method able to mimic the stress state at which the powder will be submitted during its processing.

This poster is based on the paper “Impact of Powder Properties on the Rheological Behavior of Excipients”.
