Excipients are inactive substances used in drug formulations alongside the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). They serve important functions, such as stabilizing and solubilizing the API and facilitating drug absorption, delivery, and release. Macromolecules and nanomaterials are often employed as excipients in complex formulations, particularly for emerging therapeutic modalities. For these excipients, molecular weight, size, and conformation are crucial in achieving their intended functions.
In this webinar, we will showcase case studies demonstrating how multi-angle light scattering (MALS) detection following size exclusion chromatography (SEC) and field flow fractionation (FFF) are utilized to characterize, quantify, and deformulate these advanced excipients and formulations.
