Abstract:
Process for providing purified polyether block copolymers comprising polyoxyethylene (PEO) and polyoxypropylene (PPO) moieties wherein the purified product is obtained by an ultrafiltration step of a solution of the polyether block copolymers and wherein the block copolymers are depleted in lower molecular impurities.
Abstract:
Copolymer, wherein structural units are derived from: i) an acrylic carboxylic acid monomer (4 to 18% by weight), selected from the group consisting of acrylic acid and methacrylic acid, ii) a 5 hydrophobic methacrylate (more than 8% by weight), selected from a group consisting of isopropyl methacrylate, tert-butyl methacrylate and cyclohexyl methacrylate, iii) a N-vinyl lactam, selected from a group consisting of N-vinyl pyrrolidone and N-vinylcaprolactam and optionally iv) 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, with the proviso that the total amount of structural units derived from the monomer groups adds up to 100% by weight, and the calculated solubility parameter SP of 10 the copolymer is between 22.0 and 25.0 MPa1/2, and the use of the copolymers as crystallization inhibitors in pharmaceutical dosage forms for inhibiting the recrystallization of an active ingredient in an aqueous environment of a human or animal body.
Abstract:

Abstract:
A method for stabilizing cells in cell culture production, the method comprising culturing a cell line capable of expressing proteins in cell culture media, and supplementing said cell culture media with a graft polymer in which N-vinyl caprolactam and vinyl acetate moieties are grafted on a polyethylene glycol backbone.
Abstract:
Terpolymer, wherein 20 to 35% by weight of the structural units are derived from acrylic acid, 45 to 60% by weight of the structural units from a hydrophobic methacrylate selected from a group consisting of isopropyl methacrylate, tert-butyl methacrylate and cyclohexyl methacrylate and 15 to 40% by weight of the structural units from a third olefinic monomer selected from the group consisting of N-vinyl lactam, hydroxy ethyl methacrylate and phenoxyethyl acrylate with the proviso that the total amount of structural units derived from the three monomer groups adds up to 100% by weight, and the use of the terpolymers as crystallization inhibitors in pharmaceutical dosage forms for inhibiting the recrystallization in an aqueous environment of a human or animal body of an active ingredient.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a powder mixture for the preparation of a granulate comprising as constituent at least a filler or at least an active ingredient or both and as granulation aid Magnesium diacetate×4H2O and/or Magnesium dichloride×6H2O and/or Magnesium sulfate×7H2O and/or Disodium sulfate xH2O and/or Sodium thiosulfate×5H2O and/or Na3PO4×12H2O and/or Na2HPO4×12H2O/7H2O and/or Sodium acetate×3H2O. Optionally constituents of the powder mixture to be granulated are binders, disintegrants and further customary auxiliaries. It was an object of the present invention to provide a powder mixture which can be granulated without adding a liquid but where the water for the granulation is released in-situ from Magnesium diacetate×4H2O and/or Magnesium dichloride×6H2O and/or Magnesium sulfate×7H2O and/or Disodium sulfate xH2O and/or Sodium thiosulfate×5H2O and/or Na3PO4×12H2O and/or Na2HPO4×12H2O/7H2O and/or Sodium acetate×3H2O. An additional drying step is not required.
