SP Scientific, a world leader in freeze drying technology, has released an informative new technical brief, which discusses freeze dryer equipment and the considerations and alterations that may be required based on container-closure selection.

Today many vials are stoppered by freeze dryers at sub-atmospheric pressure, with or without an inert gas layer over the product.  As the internal vial environment is at a lower pressure than its surrounds, an improperly seated stopper can easily lead to the ambient atmosphere leaking into the stoppered vial.  This may lead to oxidation damage or re-absorption of moisture, decreasing product shelf life and quality.
