Lyophilization: Science Meets Stability

Freeze-drying isn’t just about keeping cool—it’s about keeping stable. This go-to method preserves thermolabile materials, transforming them into solid cakes that reconstitute effortlessly. Benefits include extended shelf life, reduced product weight for easier shipping, and stable formulations without excessive heat. Plus, the aseptic process eliminates contamination risks.

Lyophilization Services for Biologics

The demand for biopharmaceuticals like vaccines, proteins, and cell therapies is fueling the need for lyophilization to enhance stability and shelf life. Freeze drying is essential for large molecules prone to degradation, such as antibodies, peptides, and enzymes. By removing moisture under controlled conditions, lyophilization maintains product integrity and extends usability.
As complex biologics continue to emerge, the role of lyophilization in ensuring quality and longevity grows.

The Three Stages of the Lyophilization Cycle

For lyophilization done right, every freeze frame, partner with Pii for lyophilization as easy as 1,2,3.
  1. Freezing Phase: Rapid freezing preserves material form by preventing large crystal formation, which could damage biological structures.
  2. Primary Drying (Sublimation): Lowering pressure and adding heat allows sublimation to remove 95% of water, while vacuum and cold condenser protect the process.
  3. Secondary Drying (Adsorption): Higher temperature removes bound water molecules, leaving a porous structure with 1-5% residual moisture.
