Preformulation Studies provide the foundational understanding of API–excipient compatibility, stability, solubility, and physicochemical behaviour. These include:
- Salt, hydrate and polymorph screening
- Solubility/permeability studies (BCS guidance)
- Bulk powder characterisation: particle size, hygroscopicity, true density, flow
- pH and buffer tolerance studies
- Excipient compatibility and thermal stability
Reformulation Services are available for:
- Enhancing product shelf life, palatability, and bioavailability.
- Modifying release profiles (immediate, delayed, or extended)
- Reformulating liquids into solid forms, or vice versa.
- Transitioning conventional formulations to modern excipients or delivery technologies
Co-formulation Projects support dual APIs or fixed-dose combinations with attention to:
- Compatibility and stability of actives within a single matrix
- Release synchronisation or segregation
- Taste masking and targeted delivery
- Regulatory guidance for complex multi-component dosage forms
