UPM Pharmaceuticals Enhances its Pre-Formulation Capabilities

UPM Pharmaceuticals has announced that it has purchased and qualified a TA Instruments Q20 Auto MDSC (Differential Scanning Calorimeter), and a TA Instruments Q50 TGA (Thermogravimetric Analyzer).

These pieces of equipment greatly enhance UPM’s ability to provide comprehensive pre-formulation studies, as well as support analytical testing of challenging formulations such as poorly soluble compounds.

And further is looking for a partner that can perform the latest and best analysis with the most reliable equipment available in the pre-formulation stage of development.”
