title: [The use of spray drying in pharmacy (author's transl)].
abstract: Owing to the favourable physical conditions of the evaporation process, the technique of spray drying has been used for some time to obtain dried products from solutions, suspensions, emulsions and fluid extracts. In the pharmaceutical industry, it may be utilized as a -drying technique, -micronizing procedure, -procedure for the manufacture of polymorphic or amorphic forms of active substances, -technique for producing microcapsules and spray embeddings, -method for manufacturing direct-tablettable active substances. The technical development which ranges from spray dryers for laboratory experiments to industrial plants, and the continuous operation are favourable prerequisites for research and use on an ever greater scale.
