Frequently Asked Questions
What pharmaceutical manufacturing work does The Sabreen Group do?
Development and integration of pharmaceutical and medical manufacturing technologies: product development, design and scale-up of manufacturing processes, process control, and regulatory matters. The teams are made up of PhD experts with an average of 30+ years of experience in pharmaceutical manufacturing and medical technologies.
Which unit operations are covered?
Six-sigma manufacturing operations including tabletting, fluid-bed processing and pan coating, together with printing by gravure, inkjet and laser. Oral solid dosage form design is covered for both immediate release and modified release, alongside materials science for polymers, colorants and coatings.
Is food-contact and GRAS compliance handled?
Yes -- direct and indirect food contact GRAS (Generally Regarded As Safe) status is within scope, as is product security and tamper-resistant packaging, research and development, analytical testing and design of experiments.
How are medical devices and packaging identified?
The same process disciplines apply across medical manufacturing, where identification is usually laser marked directly onto the part rather than printed or labeled. That removes the label as a failure point and as a target for tampering, and supports device traceability requirements.
What is the University of New Mexico affiliation?
Through an affiliation with the University of New Mexico College of Pharmacy, cost-effective rapid response expert teams are assembled to solve complex problems and ensure six-sigma quality manufacturing operations, rather than staffing a problem permanently that only needs specialist attention for a defined period.
