Seminár: Mastering Particle Size Analysis: A Step-By-Step Illustration of Techniques and Best Practices

Accurate measurement of particle size distribution is essential for quality control and for demonstrating bioequivalence in complex generic drug products. Yet, method development and validation remain challenging due to the deceptive simplicity of particle size analysis.

Join this 2-day hybrid workshop to gain deep insights and profit from the combination of theoretical sessions with hands-on, step-by-step demonstrations of Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) and Laser Diffraction (LD).

Participants will explore best practices, common pitfalls, and regulatory expectations, while gaining practical insights across diverse formulations such as emulsions and suspensions. With contributions from industry experts, regulators, and instrument providers, the workshop fosters knowledge exchange and equips attendees with the tools to advance method development and generic drug evaluation.
