He provides important discussions about the nature of the container-closure system and the equipment, tools, and environments required. Case studies and examples of solutions illustrate the many ways problems can be addressed in the lyophilization process.

The book covers:

Properties of lyophilized materials

Product formulation requirements and the thermal properties of formulations

Importance of process water

Phase changes

Thermal analytical methods

Freezing, primary, and secondary drying processes

Effect of vacuum freeze-dryers, both now and in the future
