| General description: | Dibutyl sebacate is another plasticizer utilized in biologics, primarily in the development of flexible, durable formulations. It is particularly important in the formulation of controlled-release systems, where its inclusion helps maintain the integrity of the polymer matrix over extended periods. Dibutyl sebacate is often used in combination with other excipients to enhance the solubility and stability of active ingredients in biologic formulations. The United States Pharmacopeia (USP) provides quality standards for biologics to ensure their safety, efficacy, and quality throughout the manufacturing process. These standards assist manufacturers in adhering to regulatory requirements and help safeguard public health by reducing risks associated with biologics. |
