Beyond Single-Point Viscosity: How USP <1912> Improves the Scale-Up and Quality Control of Advanced Pharmaceutical Formulations
Modern pharmaceutical formulations demand more than a single viscosity value.
As biologics, hydrogels, creams, gels, suspensions, and injectable formulations become increasingly complex, conventional viscosity measurements alone may no longer provide the complete picture needed for successful scale-up and reliable quality control.
The introduction of USP <1912> marks an important step toward a deeper understanding of semi-solid formulations by incorporating additional rheological parameters that reveal how a product behaves during manufacturing, storage, and application.
