Full Package of Analytical Lab Services for Successful Product and Process Development Offered

Biopharma Group is renowned for its freeze drying expertise including their R&D consultancy, and CRO services such as process reviews, product characterisation, cycle development, scale up and specialist pre-lyo or post-lyo analysis packages for the global biopharmaceutical and process industries. The company's aim is to provide a world-class service to our customers and meet the precise needs of your projects whether this be an individual analysis or a complete formulation development programme.

In addition to uniquely comprehensive R&D services, Biopharma offers lyophilisation training courses covering lyophilisation technology, best practices & practical applications.

Biopharma Group’s expertise also extends to analytical instruments, having developed the most advanced freeze drying microscope (FDM), the Lyostat, along with the Lyotherm frozen state impedometer, and MicroPress for the most accurate data relating to critical event stages.

Establishing the behaviour of frozen state solutions is essential for many industries. Understanding the critical events for each solution can improve longevity and efficacy of a product. Having detailed and clear phase transition data allows for determination of clear parameters which, in turn, will result in increased efficiency, stability and productivity.

The most effective method of determining these phase transitions is impedance analysis (Zsinφ). The Lyotherm3 combines both electrical impedance and traditional thermal (DTA) analysis techniques allowing for greater detail and more informed decision making.

When used in conjunction with Biopharma’s Lyostat5 (FDM), a complete picture of the behaviour of the frozen material can be obtained. The Lyostat5 establishes accurate knowledge about the product’s collapse behaviour which is vital when developing a new cycle, scaling up or developing a formulation, saving time and money.
