Fellow Nick Huls will spend his fellowship commercializing a technology that he and Munson have developed as a quality control measurement for freeze-dried products with a focus on the medical field. Current testing methods are imprecise or require opening a vial, rendering it ineffective. Both can cost companies big money, as vials can be worth thousands of dollars each. Purdue’s innovative technology measures the mobility of freeze-dried components and allows for the analysis of material while still in the vial, reducing waste and saving money.
