FDA pharma compliance for spray-dried powders
NanoChem needed to maintain stringent quality control and specialized capabilities to tailor beadlets and spray-dried powders that meet specific formulation needs. The company faced challenges in ensuring precise dosages, consistency, and accuracy in each serving of their products. Additionally, advanced pulse combustion spray drying was critical for the efficient production of high-quality powders, requiring meticulous control of particle encapsulation and active pharmaceutical ingredient reactions to achieve the desired results.
Digitalization of lab notes to improve collaboration
To address these challenges, NanoChem partnered with TECHNIA to rapidly deploy BIOVIA ELN (electronic laboratory notebook), a platform designed to facilitate scientific collaboration and foster innovation. By consolidating all research data into one secure location, the ELN enabled easy access, retrieval, and sharing of information among teams, allowing multiple scientists in different locations to collaborate seamlessly on a secure platform. This solution was crucial in meeting the rigorous standards required for product formulation and quality control.
Streamlining pharma R&D to reduce time-to-market
The integration of BIOVIA ELN at NanoChem streamlined R&D processes and reduced time-to-market. The system became essential for meeting FDA approval requirements. The impact has been clear, improving collaboration across locations and increasing operational efficiency. This partnership has enabled NanoChem to maintain its focus on innovation and quality, supporting its mission to deliver environmentally responsible, high-performance products in the oil, gas, and nutraceutical sectors.
