Pharmaceutical testing
 

 

Physico-chemical testing on pharmaceutical products (tablets, suppositories, capsules...) is a major stage before a batch release. As a consequence, it is crutial to have an equipment which meet your need : in compliance with pharmaceutical norms (EP or USP), robust and reliable.

Our solutions are leader in Europe, and our supplier is among the main pharmaceutical companies suppliers.

Dissolution tests : In addition to compliance and reliability criteria, we also offer innovative solutions to
facilitate analysis considered as difficult (such as dissolution of suppositories within a continuous flow bath (USP4).


Dissolution testing
Dissolution is the physico-chemical phenomenon observed during the dissolution of a chemical component in a solvant.

Physical tests: as dissolution tests, physical tests are essential on solid shapes before a batch release : disintegration, hardness and friability tests. All the instruments enabling these measurements comply with the different materia medica, caring about reliability and robustness.

Different versions of a same instrument are available in order to adapt the solution to specific speed (manual or automated versions), sample kinds, or applications (quality control or research and development).

Disintegration testing
It consists in having a tablet go and come in a basket until the complete disintegration of it.
Hardness testing
It consists in applying pressure on the tablet until the breaking point.
Friability testing
To check a tablet mass loss after rotation in a drum at a speed of 25 turns per minutes.
Tap density test
To measure a powder height in a test-tube after a vertical beats series.

Content uniformity testing
To check the active principle level of a tablet is one of the most important tests before the batch release.
