Dilip M Parikh 
CRC Press  2005  



Hardback  656 pp  ISBN 0824726472      £130.00
Completely revised and expanded, this reference provides
  • new chapters on granulation process modeling, scale-up considerations in granulation, rapid release granulation techniques, melt granulation and pelletization, effervescent granulation, rapid release granulation, and process analytical technology (PAT)
  • updated sections on the theory of granulation from an engineering perspective, as well as the most recent regulatory standards and technologies employed in industry, methods to produce pharmaceutical granulation, and the spray drying techniques
  • in-depth analyses of a number of different dosage forms utilizing varying granulation technologies to keep readers at the forefront of technological advancement
  • a wide spectrum of granulation methods
Applying basic theories to industrial practices in pharmaceutical development, this Second Edition explains how new and emerging technologies are utilized in the production of pharmaceutical granulation-demonstrating cost-effective strategies to manufacture solid-dosage forms with consistent physical properties while complying with current regulatory requirements.
