Pilot Plant Scale-up Techniques

INTRODUCTION

Scientists in research and development take considerable effort in developing pharmaceutical dosage forms with adequate physical and chemical stability. These products are designed to deliver and release a drug according to specific criteria. The experimental formulation developed on laboratory scale should be reproducibly manufactured on high-speed production equipment in a cost-effective manner for establishing as a successful product.

In pilot plant scale-up technique, a formula is analyzed and transferred into a most suitable formulation by the development of a reliable and practical method of manufacture that effects the orderly transition from laboratory to routine processing in a large-scale ...
