Enhancing diagnostics with expert lyophilisation

Mar 13 2025

Lyophilisation, or freeze-drying, is a complex process that requires careful control and optimisation to achieve the desired product quality. In the diagnostics sector, where products often have specific requirements and complex formulations, it is crucial to partner with a CDMO that has the necessary expertise and experience in lyophilisation.

A CDMO partner can provide valuable assistance in optimising the lyophilisation process, ensuring product stability and activity, and scaling up production while maintaining quality. When choosing a CDMO partner for your diagnostics product, it is important to consider their experience, capabilities, and track record.
