Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus and method for the production of dispersions and solids by way of controlled precipitation, co-precipitation and self-organization processes in a microjet reactor, a jet of solvent containing at least one target molecule and a jet of nonsolvent colliding with each other, at specified pressures and flow rates, at a collision point in the reactor chamber of the microjet reactor, and the microjet reactor having a gas inlet for introducing gas into the reactor chamber and an educt outlet for discharging the educts in a stream of gas. This results in very rapid precipitation, co-precipitation or a chemical reaction, during the course of which micro- or nanoparticles form.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a pharmaceutical composition comprising guanfacine or a salt thereof in nanoparticle form and at least one non-pH dependent sustained release agent. The present invention further is directed to a method of producing said nanoparticles and to nanoparticles obtained by this method.

Abstract: The present invention is related to the field of pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of various disease states, particularly neoplastic diseases and autoimmune diseases. It especially relates to the oral application of bendamustine and its derivatives. The invention further relates to a process for preparing a pharmaceutical composition which comprises bendamustine and its derivatives prepared by hot melt extrusion using pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. The invention also relates to such pharmaceutical compositions and hot melt extrudates.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing microparticles or nanoparticles of water-soluble and water-insoluble substances by controlled precipitation, co-precipitation and self-organization processes in microjet reactors, a solvent, which contains at least one target molecule, and a nonsolvent being mixed as jets that collide with each other in a microjet reactor at defined pressures and flow rates and thereby effect very rapid precipitation, co-precipitation or a chemical reaction, during the course of which microparticles or nanoparticles are formed.

Abstract: Pharmaceutical drug particles of small particle size are produced by combining a solvent-non-solvent precipitate with an in-situ spray drying process. A pharmaceutical drug is dispersed in a water-miscible solvent, in particular ethanol, and heated in an infeed line under pressure to above the boiling point of the solvent until the drug dissolves. This solution collides as a fine liquid jet with a fine water jet in a gas-permeated microreactor, and the fine mist so arising vaporises rapidly. The organic solvent vaporizes first, then the water. The water may contain surface modifiers.
