Avantor’s high-purity and Super Refined grades of JT Baker polysorbates are manufactured under current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) conditions in FDA-registered ISO 9000-certified facilities, and are supported by the company’s best-in-class quality systems.
While Avantor’s existing high-purity grade of polysorbates offers low levels of impurities for better performance in formulations, the new Super Refined grade takes advantage of a proprietary flash chromatographic process that removes even more polar and oxidative impurities, such as peroxides and aldehydes, which can degrade active pharmaceutical ingredients.
The surface activity of polysorbates helps to stabilise proteins by reducing the alteration or aggregation of proteins during manufacturing, distribution and storage. With poorly soluble drugs, polysorbates provide improvements in solubilisation while enhancing the stability of emulsions.
JT Baker polysorbates are vegetable-based, with a non-peanut origin, providing low endotoxin and other impurities, which is critical for formulation of biopharmaceuticals. The products meet the rigorous multi-compendial requirements of the National Formulary (NF), European Pharmacopoeia (EP) and Japanese Pharmacopoeia (JP) or Japanese Pharmaceutical Excipients (JPE).
The new Super Refined polysorbates are available in bottle sizes ranging from 200 mL up to 4 L, and are packaged under nitrogen to ensure premium product integrity.
