Understanding Dissolution

Explore the fundamentals of dissolution testing and its critical role in the pharmaceutical industry. This module provides a detailed look at how a solid dosage drug form dissolves and is absorbed into the bloodstream, focusing on factors like polarity, temperature, pH, and agitation. Understand the principles of ‘in vivo’ and ‘in vitro’ dissolution analyses and learn about single-point and multi-point testing methods. Through animations and interactive explorations, grasp how dissolution testing ensures drug efficacy and compliance with regulatory standards.

Whether for onboarding or annual refresher training, this Module is seamlessly deployable on any LMS and can be tailored to your company’s exact needs.
