Keeping drugs free of contaminants – pharmaceutical makers filter medications through tiny pores to keep them sterile and safe
Every year, the global pharmaceutical industry produces trillions of doses of medications. Manufacturing these drugs involves several stages, and the chance of contamination increases with every step. Thus, before a single drop of any drug can be given to a patient, it must be sterilized. In my work as a researcher in pharmaceutical manufacturing, I investigate how the properties of different drugs and filters affect how well medications are sterilized through certain methods.
