Gelatin capsules require varying relative humidities, depending upon size of capsule'. Moisture content should not exceed 0.25 gr per cu ft. Various kinds of gelatin require different temperatures.
Penicillin incubation process requires holding temperature within 1 deg F, with temperatures and hu
midity rigidly controlled during all manufacturing phases. ` Ampule filling requires a 20 percent relative humidity when especially fine powders are used.
' Unooated tablet manufacturing requires accurate oontrol of temperature and relative humidity, since low relative humidity causes formation of a hard outer layer, and high relative humidity retards drying at
theLpirvoepreerxrtaratec.ts require a low relative humidity after they are dried. Temperatures higher than 80 F will cause the extracts to deteriorate.
Tablet c-nating requires the control of the temperatures of all ingredients and the temperature of air in
troduced to coating pans. Sterile conditions are essential in many pharmaceutical processes. Provide suitable air exhaust to re
move surplus material from tablet compressing machine. Air filtration m generally required, with positive air filtration in some areas.
