Session: Mixing Issues in the Pharmaceutical Industry

The utilization of mixing technology in pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries is critical to a broad spectrum of applications. These applications include preparation of APIs, methods of fermentation and cell culture, downstream processing of biologicals, and pharmaceutical operations including suspension handling, and emulsification. Utilization of mixing theory and evolving experimental methods are required for successful development and scale-up. We invite papers in these (and related) areas describing mixing-related process development work, as well as methodologies to scale up or scale down mixing-sensitive processes.
