The pharmaceutical, or simply, the drug industry, has four main divisions: research and development, production, administration, and sales.Research and development professionalscreate new drug products and improve existing ones. Products designed by research and development professionals are manufactured by production workers called, as a whole,pharmaceutical operators. Many of these employees work on production lines, tending equipment that measures, weighs, mixes, and granulates various chemical ingredients and components, which are then manufactured into such forms as pills and capsules. Often these employees inspect the finished goods, looking for such inconsistencies as broken tablets and unfilled capsules.There are a number of specific job designations in the realm of production, although more drug companies are choosing to have their products manufactured abroad.Capsule filling machine operatorsrun machines that fill gelatin capsules with medicine. They scoop empty capsules into a loading hopper and medicine into a filling hopper. After the filled and sealed capsules are ejected by the machinery, these operators inspect the capsules for proper filling and for evidence of breakage. They may also spot-check individual capsules or lots by comparing their weight with standardized figures on a weight specification sheet. This process is used for certain antihistamines, vitamins, and general pain relievers, for example.Ampule and vial fillerswork with glass tubes and plastic and glass containers with rubber stopules that are filled with medicine and then sealed. The process for filling is similar to that for the capsule filler; however, the operator must adjust gas flames to the appropriate temperature so that the tubes are completely sealed. They also count and pack readied ampules and vials for shipment. (Vials and syringes have recently become the primary containers for liquid drug production in the United States.)Ampule and vial inspectorsuse magnifying glasses orinspection machinesto check for cracks, leaks, and other damage. They keep records of inspected cartons, as well as damaged or flawed products.Granulator machine operatorsoperate mixing and milling machines that are equipped with fine blades that mix ingredients and then crush or mill them into powder so that they can be formed into tablets. They are responsible for weighing and measuring each batch, blending the ingredients with the use of machinery, and adding alcohol, gelatins, or starch pastes to help the pill keep its form. They then spread the mixture on trays that they place into an oven or steam dryer set at a predetermined temperature. At the conclusion of the heating process, they check each batch for dryness levels, size, weight, and texture.Coatersoperate machines that cover pills and tablets with coatings that flavor, color, or preserve the contents.Fermenter operatorsoversee fermenting tanks and equipment, which produce antibiotics and other drugs. Operators start the mixing tanks, add ingredients, such as salt, yeast, and sugar, and transfer the mixture to a fermenting tank when it is ready. They are responsible for monitoring the temperature in the tanks, for adding precise amounts of liquid antibiotic, water, and foam-preventive oil, and for measuring the amount of solution so that it may be transferred to another tank for additional processing.Biotechnology production workers have a variety of duties depending on their employer. According toCareers in Biotechnology,by Gina Frierman-Hunt and Julie Solberg, Biotechnology manufacturing jobs are usually divided intoupstream processes,the early part of manufacturing when proteins are produced by cells in the fermentation process, anddownstream processes,to fill and package the final product for sale.
