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.
