Protect Your Scientific Intellectual Property for the Long Term
Can your electronic research IP records withstand a court challenge?
Sponsored By: Surety, LLC
As more pharmaceutical, bio-sciences and R&D-centric firms move to electronic lab environments, your digital scientific research, formulas and clinical findings are your scientific Intellectual Property. Protecting the integrity and legally defending the authenticity and ownership of such electronic data is critical to your organization’s long-term success. But if you are overlooking this protection in your lab management workflows, you risk losing patent ownership, revenue and consequently your business, if you can't prove authenticity and time of creation, hence your ownership, in a court of law.
This new whitepaper from IP Protection Leader, Surety, explores these concepts and requirements, and discusses how you can implement simple, cost-effective controls to achieve legally defensible scientific IP for the life of the research records. |

Hot Melt Extrusion (HME) - nano-scale compounding developments
Author: Charlie Martin
Sponsored By: Leistritz
Hot melt extrusion is emerging as a preferred manufacturing methodology for dosage forms. The high cost and limited availability of raw materials during the development phase has resulted in the need to process small amounts of APIs/excipients via extrusion to determine process viability. Experimental data is presented on a new twin screw extrusion device that can process as little as 20 to 100 gram micro-batches, as well as a scale-up path. |
