The Smart freeze drying system, developed by freeze-drying manufacturer FTS Systems, is a breakthrough tool that enables scientists to accelerate the development of cycles for protein therapeutics
Anyone involved in freeze-drying formulation development will know how expensive it can be to develop a working cycle.
Scientists in R+D divisions of pharmaceutical and biotech firms can spend many weeks or months developing a single cycle for a single formulation.
Once a working cycle is developed it is rarely altered- even though it may not be efficient.
The Smart freeze drying system, developed by leading freeze-drying manufacturers FTS Systems, is a breakthrough tool that enables scientists to accelerate the development of cycles for protein therapeutics.
Case studied from several premier life sciences organisations indicate amazing results: cycle development time reduced by more than 75%.
Smart generates process data never before available from a freeze drying system, such as product resistance and heat flow.
The streamlined cycles produced can shave days from a typical freeze-drying process.
Smart is available exclusively on FTS Systems Lyostar II freeze dryers.
FTS has been a leading manufacturer of innovative R+D, process development and pilot-scale freeze dryers for over 30 years.
Its product range also includes a full range of thermal control systems, including chillers, baths and traps.
FTS Systems is represented throughout the UK and Ireland by freeze-drying expert Biopharma Process Systems.
