Laboratory Freeze Dryers

Laboratory Freeze Dryers are designed to dehydrate products by freezing and lowering the pressure to remove ice through sublimation. Unlike conventional dehydration methods that use heat to evaporate water, freeze dryers operate at low temperatures. This helps to preserve the qualities of the rehydrated product. The process involves freezing the material, reducing the pressure, and adding heat to facilitate the direct change of frozen water into vapor. Freeze drying consists of four stages: pretreatment, freezing, primary drying, and secondary drying.

One of the key advantages of laboratory freeze dryers is their ability to maintain the original characteristics of the product. In pharmaceutical applications where liquids are often dried, the properties of the final product are optimized by incorporating excipients. Freeze drying is considered the preferred method for dehydrating food and other products due to its ability to preserve quality. Products dried using laboratory freeze dryers exhibit higher levels of characteristics such as aroma, rehydration, and bioactivity compared to those dried using alternative methods. Laboratory freeze dryers serve extensive use in various fields, including biology, biomedicine, food processing, and preservation.
