A GUIDE TO PHARMACEUTICAL PARTICULATE SCIENCE

Exploring the growth in knowledge of particle properties and the variety of technological advances in particle manufacture, this book helps readers understand particulate science and its use in the industry. The authors cover particulate material, its form and production, sampling from bodies of powder, particle size descriptors and statistics, behavior of particles, instrumental analysis, particle size measurement and synergy of adopted techniques, physical behavior of a powder, and in vitro and in vivo performance criteria. They draw the components of particulate science into a single concise description of their integration in the context of product development.
