Münster, 06/12/2022

Training is of great importance at Aenova. With over 80 trainees within the Aenova Group, vocational training for the next generation is an integral part at all Aenova locations.At the career information fair CoeMBO on November 12, 2022 in the school center of the city of Coesfeld, Aenova Münster was on site with a team and informed many young interested students about all topics related to training at one of the world's leading contract manufacturers for the pharmaceutical and healthcare industry. Aenova's Münster site focuses on the development, production and packaging of high-potency and/or low-dose tablets and, in particular, hormones, hormone-like substances and narcotics. Another focus is on production technologies for micro-dosed capsules, e.g. with dry powder for inhalation. Around 250 employees contribute to the success of the site. The following training courses are offered: Apprenticeship as chemical laboratory assistant (m/f/d), pharmaceutical assistant (m/f/d), industrial clerk (m/f/d), IT specialist for system integration (m/f/d). Currently, 9 trainees are employed at Aenova in Münster. "We are pleased to be able to offer young people in the region interesting apprenticeships every year. The pharmaceutical industry is characterized by very good job and career prospects," explains Michael Obermeier, Head of Human Resources in Münster. "At the same time, we work here for the health of patients worldwide. That, of course, is another very special motivation," Obermeier continues. The CoeMBO is a trade fair for career guidance, where young people from Münsterland and the surrounding area get the opportunity to get an overview of the possibilities after graduating from school. After a two-year break from Corona, the fair was held again this year in presence. <figure><img src="https://www.aenova-group.com/content/_medium/Messe_Gruppenfoto-MST.jpg" data-image="555374"><figcaption>Team Aenova Münster at training event</figcaption></figure>

Micro-dosed capsule filling and dry powder inhalation are key innovation topics at Aenova

26/10/2022 - Micro-dosed capsule filling and dry powder inhalation at Aenova

Münster, 26/10/2022

Dry powder inhalation using a DPI device (dry powder inhaler) is becoming more and more important for patient care in view of the worldwide increase in lung and respiratory diseases. The need for therapeutics for bronchial asthma and COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), for example, is also rising worldwide. Many of the therapies need to be used by patients for life, which underscores the need to make DPI cost-effectively available and easy for patients to use.The galenic formulation of the active ingredients is particularly challenging, as the inhalable aerosol particles must have an aerodynamic diameter of 1 to 5 µm over the entire shelf life of the product in order to ensure adequate pulmonary mobility. For this purpose, Aenova has a state-of-the-art DPI capsule production and proven expertise from development to commercial production. With state-of-the-art micro-dosing technology, Aenova ensures full scalability for DPI capsule products (flexible batch sizes from 0.5 kg to commercial sizes). In addition, there are product-specific analysis options according to EP / USP as well as specific blistering and combination packaging solutions. Together with the customer, Aenova creates a purposeful concept phase and a product design precisely tailored to the requirements - including analytical method development, ICH stability testing, development and validation of the manufacturing process to obtain a safe and stable effect of the drug product. The modern high-speed capsule filling machine at the Aenova site in Münster is suitable for product dosing in the range of 5 mg to 50 mg per capsule and is equipped with 100% control, which enables in-process control of each individual capsule and ensures the highest quality of the final low-dose product. If required, additional modular dosing units can be integrated to combine also different dosage forms, e.g. pellets and powder, tablets and pellets and other variants. "We are very proud to be able to offer such a comprehensive service from development to commercial production in the field of dry powder inhalation and micro-dosed capsule filling of highly potent active ingredients," says Dr. Gereon Rau, Team Lead - Capsule Technologies at Aenova. "Our innovative solutions and reliable production and delivery capabilities are of benefit to our customers in the pharmaceutical industry and, last but not least, to patients with respiratory diseases worldwide."
