Inhaled Dissolution Testing

Our Inhaled Dissolution Apparatus™, IDA, is purpose built to address long standing challenges in OIP dissolution testing. Using a simple Collect > Transfer > Dissolve workflow, it enables generation of controlled dissolution profiles across a wide range of products.

Join our RDD workshop to explore inhaled dissolution testing in practice. Attendees will see the IDA first hand, gain practical insight into method considerations, and experience the system up close through an interactive demonstration.

Tools For Automation

We supply a broad range of automated solutions for both Delivered Dose Uniformity (DDU) testing and Aerodynamic Particle Size Distribution (APSD) measurement. Our off-the-shelf solutions streamline validation and product testing methods and boost test accuracy and productivity for both R&D and QC. More Info

Realistic Aerodynamic Particle Size Distribution (r-APSD)

Making a relatively small investment in systems that enhance the clinical realism of standard pharmacopoeial in-vitro test set-ups for DDU testing and APSD measurement may help bridge the gap between data collected from compendial core test methods and in vivo performance to help more robustly confirm bioequivalence.

Nasal Drug Product Testing

Our nasal drug product testing solutions address the unique challenges of characterising sprays, aerosols and powders for local and systemic delivery. With increasing emphasis on clinically relevant and discriminating in vitro methods, we support more sensitive, informative approaches that strengthen insight into targeted delivery and bioequivalence assessment. Our solutions enable robust, data driven evaluation aligned with evolving scientific and regulatory expectations.
