Formulation Research and Development

CPC India’s product development services are designed to quickly deliver robust formulations to support our customer’s commercial timelines. We carry out product development using Quality-By-Design tools like Design of Experiment (DOE) along with risk assessment with desired Critical Quality Attributes (CQA). Desired product attributes are identified, and prototype formulations are developed to meet the desired product attributes. Critical process parameters (CPP) are identified, and process optimization studies are carried out based on Quality by Design (QbD) principles.
