Utrasonic topic: "Ultrasonic Processing in the Pharma Industry"
Power ultrasonics is a highly efficient and reliable tool for the production of vaccines, nano-formulated drugs and drug carriers (e.g. liposomes). Hielscher Ultrasonics’ lab, pilot and industrial systems produce pharma-grade micron- and nano-emulsions / -dispersions, liposomes as well as vaccines. Hielscher’s ultrasonic systems are equipped with CIP (clean-in-place) and SIP (sterilize-in-place) and guarantee thereby safe and efficient production according to pharmaceutical standards. All specific ultrasonic processes can be easily tested in lab or bench-top scale and then be linearly scaled up to industrial production.
