MilliporeSigma Launches New Sucrose Offering

MilliporeSigma Launches New Sucrose Offering

For high risk applications such as injectables and biotherapeutics

John Langer of MilliporeSigma discusses the company’s new sucrose offering under the company’s EMPROVE EXPERT category for high risk applications, such as injectables and biotherapeutics.
 
MilliporeSigma developed a new filtration-based manufacturing process resulting in a new, highly purified sucrose grade with reduced levels of nanoparticle impurities (NPI). The new product, Sucrose EMPROVE EXPERT Ph Eur, ChP, JP, NF, is for the high-risk applications of manufacturing and formulating biomolecules.

As a widely used protein stabilizer for biomolecule formulation, the quality of sucrose is crucial. In an exclusive collaboration with Coriolis Pharma, MilliporeSigma designed the new purification process and associated nanoparticle analytics of sucrose. The result is a highly pure sucrose that offers the following benefits over non-purified sucrose: A low level of NPIs on the limit of detection of current technologies, reducing risk of protein stability; Less interference with analytical methods; High batch-to-batch consistency; Reduced risk of API damage.
