Glass Transition of Lactose
The glass transition of lactose is in direct relation with the stickiness and the flowability of powders containing it. This in turn influences the processing.

Shelf life of drugs: Reduce Your Testing Time by Using Thermal Analysis
How to determine the shelf life of drugs without long time testing? First predictions about the shelf-life concerning thermal stability are achieved using thermogravimetric measurements with a kinetics Evaluation. This occurs within some hours or days.
Polymorphism: Identification with DSC
Each of the modifications of a polymorph has different physical properties. That´s why they have to be characterized before processing, for example using DSC.
Drug excipient compatibility: Try it with thermal analysis
Drug excipient compatibility ensure that the efficacy of the active ingredient is not affected by the excipients. You get first information about compatibility and interaction of components with thermal analysis methods as DSC or TG.
Thermal Stability of Pharmaceuticals: Eudragit®
Thermal stability of materials measured fast and easy with a thermobalance coupled to a FT-IR System. Here, this method is applied to determine the thermal stability of Eudragit® L100-55.
