Freeze Drying Theory
By EllabFreeze Drying, or Lyophilization, has become an accepted method of processing sensitive products that require long term storage at temperatures above freezing.
In this white paper, we describe the typical types of equipment, the basic freeze-drying theory and process steps – from pretreatment, freezing, primary drying to secondary drying.
We also go into depth with some of the parameters that require attention or understanding. Process monitoring and validation are also described as well as suggestions and recommendations for your choice of equipment.
