Controlling Ice Nucleation during Lyophilization: Process Optimization of Vacuum-Induced Surface Freezing

Biopharmaceuticals are often lyophilized to improve their storage stability. Controlling ice nucleation during the freezing step of the lyophilization process is desired to increase homogeneity of product properties across a drug product batch and shorten the primary drying time. The present communi...
