Corning Valor® Vials Demonstrate Superior Performance by Resisting Breakage During Low Temperature P
Glass vial failures, specifically breakage, lensing, and cracks, are a source of product loss and process cost in the freeze-thaw, cryogenic preservation, and lyophilization of pharmaceutical products. Lyophilization is a common method for the preparation of freeze-dried pharmaceutical products, which requires low temperature processing to avoid product damage or decomposition. Because process times are long and lyophilization is regarded as an expensive process, considerable
