Presented by Dr. Jeff Schwegman, this laboratory based Hands-On Laboratory Training approach will focus on following the freeze-drying process from formulation and thermal analysis to cycle development and optimization, packaging and troubleshooting. Attendees will have the chance to optimize their learning experience by using tangible applications in a controlled setting.
Hands-On Training is a four-day program, and fees include in-person training, course manuals, accommodations, lunch, dinner, and beverages. In order to maintain the high quality of our practical training workshops, however, places are limited.
Course Objectives At-A-Glance:
- Cycle development initial optimization
- Formulation considerations and characterization
- Utilizing differential scanning
- Calorimetry and freeze-drying microscopy in the development of the cycle
- Creating and running the freeze-drying cycle based on data obtained by analysis
- Troubleshooting problematic cycles
- Considerations for transferring freeze-drying cycles from one freeze dryer to another
- Vial headspace analysis
