BET surface area measurement of excipients and its impact on dissolution rates

BET surface area of excipients and APIs plays a vital role in determining dissolution rates of tablets and capsules. Understanding the surface area helps decode issues related to dissolution rate failures and reduces time lost to trial and error. Learn how to comply with USP 846 (specific surface area, ultra-low surface area samples) using nitrogen instead of expensive krypton.
