Pharmaceutical freeze drying Technology is the removal of ice or other frozen solvents from a material through the process of sublimation and the removal of bound water molecules through the process of desorption. Lyophilization and freeze drying are terms that are used interchangeably depending on the industry and location where the drying is taking place. Controlled freeze drying keeps the product temperature low enough during the process to avoid changes in the dried product appearance and characteristics. It is an first-rate method for preserving a wide diversity of heat-sensitive materials such as proteins, microbes, pharmaceuticals, tissues & plasma.
In discovery process includes the primary phases of research, which are designed to categorize an investigational drug and perform primary tests in the lab. This first stage of the process takes approximately three to six years. By the end, researchers hope to identify a promising drug aspirant to further study in the lab and in animal models, and then in people

Drug Design, usually specific to as rational drug design or just rational design, is that the creative method of finding new medications supported the data of a biological sciences target. The drug is most ordinarily associate degree organic little molecule that activates or inhibits the perform of a biomolecule like a macromolecule organic chemistry, that successively ends up in a therapeutic profit to the patient. Within the modest sense, drug design involves the planning of molecules that are opposite in form and charge to the bio molecular target with that they move and thus can bind to that. Drug design of times however not essentially depends on laptop modeling techniques. This sort of modeling is typically observed as computer-aided drug design.

Anticancer drug, also called antineoplastic drug, any drug that remains effective in the treatment of malignant, or cancerous, disease. There are several major classes of anticancer drugs; these include alkylating agents, antimetabolites, natural products, and hormones. In addition, there are a number of drugs that do not fall within those classes but that demonstrate anticancer activity and therefore are used in the treatment of malignant disease

Rare disease research has reached a listing point, with the confluence of scientific and technologic developments that if appropriately connected, could lead to key innovations and treatments for this set of devastating conditions. Industry-wide trends have discovered that the traditional drug discovery research and development (R&D) model is no longer viable, and drug companies are developing their approach. Rather than only pursue blockbuster therapeutics for heterogeneous, common diseases, drug companies have gradually begun to shift their focus to rare diseases. In academia, advances in genetics analyses and disease mechanisms have allowed scientific understanding to mature, but the shortage of funding and translational capability severely limits the rare disease research that leads to clinical trials

Pharmacology is that the division of drugs and biology involved with the study of drug action,, where a drug can be broadly described as any man-made, natural, or endogenous (from within body) molecule which exerts a biochemical and/or physiological issue on the cell, tissue, organ, or organism (sometimes the word pharmacon is used as a term to encompass these endogenous and exogenous bioactive species). More definitely, it is the study of the interactions that occur between a living organism and chemicals that alter normal or abnormal biochemical function.

Drug product formulation is at the fundamental of Particle Sciences. Industry-wide, distribution of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) has taken center stage along with the API's themselves. Focused initially on problematic new chemical entities (NCEs), delivery systems are now the go-to approach for both NCE commercialization and the refinement and repurposing of existing APIs. The biological and chemical needs generally fall into one or a combination of a small number of categories. In addition to physicochemical and physiologic goals, business concerns also drive the use of sophisticated drug delivery systems.
