How to Perform a Standardized Tapped Density Test for Pharmaceutical Powders

Tapped density is a significant parameter to explore the compressibility and flowability of pharmaceutical powders, which is useful to promote the approach of QbD and GMPs. Standardization of apparatus and procedure is vital to get meaningful repeatable results. In this application note, standardized tapped density tests of three excipients were performed by the BeDensi T3 Pro with 3 workstations. It is worthy of note that this highly efficient and economic tester is designed to meet the USP and EP standards fully.
