Join leading academic and industry experts for a five-day Tablets & Capsules Hands-On Short Course at the University of Maryland School of Pharmacy. This comprehensive course will take participants through the entire manufacturing process from raw material assessment and formulation development, through the unit operations of manufacturing monitored by PAT methods and concluding with end-product testing and quality control.Lecture material is emphasized by comprehensive labs in which the unit operations discussed include: milling, mixing, granulation, spray drying, compression, encapsulation, and coating. The course also covers formulation strategies and offers a detailed discussion about the major excipient classes, such as filler binders, lubricants, and disintegrants.
Course Objectives:
By the end of the course, students will be able to:
• Develop a basic tablet and capsule formulation and be able to describe the role of each excipient in the formulation
• Set up and operate a tablet press and capsule filling machine
• Granulate a powder using wet and dry methods
• Coat a tablet or multiparticulate bead
• For the unit operations studied, identify the key variables that controls the product quality
• Understand the basics of setting up a PAT quality control system
• Explain the concepts of QbD, process validation, product evaluation, and FDA regulatory requirements
• Develop new contacts with faculty and colleagues
Who Should Attend:
This course is an introduction to tablet and capsule manufacturing from beginning to end, and emphasizes hands-on, practical learning through extensive laboratory exercises. It is designed for industrial researchers who work in formulation development, process development, quality control, and administration. It is also ideal for FDA regulators who work in CMC review, as well as FDA labs involved in product quality evaluation.
The course fee is $3,300, which includes tuition, course handouts, all lab costs, snacks, lunch, and a welcome reception. To ensure that all students have access to the laboratory exercises and one-on-one instruction, enrollment is limited. Pre-registration is highly recommended.
