Presenting information in an easy-to-read style, this book comprehensively and authoritatively covers lyophilization. Using plain, informative, unpretentious language, Jennings pulls together information from diverse sources to provide a basic introduction not only directed to lyophilizing solutions but also relevant to more complex systems containing rigid cellular structures. Including over 150 illustrations, global symbols, and more than 350 references, this book is the complete guide to lyophilization, its analytical methods, measurement of process parameters, and equipment. Generously supported with applications, examples, and data appendices.Features
