Minimizing Polysorbate Degradation with Pfanstiehl’s Histidine - Case Study Presentation & Challenges of Formulating Complex Biologics
Polysorbate degradation is a persistent challenge in biologics formulations, often driven by trace metals contamination such as iron (Fe) and copper (Cu) often found in excipients. Pfanstiehl's highly processed & purified excipient grade amino acids , refined to remove trace metals to single-digit parts per billion, offer a solution. In a customer-developed case study, the use of Pfanstiehl's High Purity Low Endotoxin Low Metals L-Histidine successfully prevented polysorbate degradation under high-temperature accelerated stability conditions, demonstrating its effectiveness in preserving surfactant integrity. The presentation will also cover some aspects of challenges of formulating complex Biologics.
