Dr. SIMON TASKER, COLORCON
|
When developing a tablet dosage form for a particular drug, one area that needs
to be addressed is film coating; more specifically aqueous film coating. With
aqueous film coating, several issues need to be considered. In Dr. Tasker's
talk, the criteria for tablet design, coating formulation selection and process
scale up factors will be outlined. In addition, Dr. Tasker will discuss the
choices that need to be made in the early phases of development and what can be
done later if the research & development team gets it wrong.
Dr. Tasker is head of Pharmaceutical Technical Services for Colorcon North
America. He received his Ph.D. from the School of Chemistry at the University
of Durham in 1994. His technical experience includes a position as a research
associate from Biophysics and Surface Analysis Group, in the School of
Pharmacy, University of Nottingham, UK, from 1994 to 1996. Late in 1996, he
joined Colorcon Europe as a scientist in the product development and technical
services groups. In 1999, Dr. Tasker transferred to Colorcon North America in
a technical management role.
Dr. Tasker's technical interests include film coating, tableting and fluid bed
technologies, as they relate to the preparation of oral dosage forms, and the
implementation of product and process optimization. He has several
publications in the areas of modification and characterization of polymer
surfaces.
