Mixing Technologies in the Pharmaceutical and Medical Industries (Mar 2025)
March 26th 2025This white paper presents an overview of mixing technologies implemented across many of today’s highly competitive pharmaceutical and medical industries, as well as new equipment designs that are increasingly being recognized as potential solutions to prevailing mixing challenges. Mixing applications falling within the broad spectrum of mass produced pharmaceutical goods and medical devices are too many and complex to discuss in detail hence this paper will touch on a few general classifications as well as a few examples within that mixing category. Phase and viscosity are used as bases for classification.
Select a powder induction mixer that can serve multiple mix tanks of virtually any size
March 26th 2025An inline rotor/stator mixer equipped for powder induction offers flexibility, capability and portability to serve multiple mix vessels of virtually any size. Its straightforward operation and convenience further maximize equipment utility while simplifying material handling.
Specifying a tumble blender for pharmaceutical manufacturing (Mar 2025)
March 26th 2025Tumble blenders deliver highly accurate and repeatable mixing of powders, granules and even low-viscosity slurries. In addition, this style blender enables complete discharge and easy cleaning. This bulletin presents some design considerations for maximizing mixing efficiency in a tumble blender and selecting the most suitable features for a particular application.
Is “right first time, every time” a pipedream for metabolite identification by LC-MS?
March 18th 2025The dream state If we lived in an ideal world, it would be possible to unambiguously identify metabolites using a single analytical experiment. This analytical technique would need to be efficient and easily generate the information needed from a routine assay that is also robust, enabling confident decision-making during drug discovery. At SCIEX, we believe that metabolite identification using the ZenoTOF 7600 system gets close to this dream state.
