RTS Life Science announces the launch of SolidPrep, which it says is a groundbreaking new line of tablet sample preparation systems
SolidPrep provides high speed preparation of tablets and other solid dose pharmaceuticals for assay, impurity and dose content uniformity applications.
Using the SolidPrep most laboratories will be able to achieve at least three times the throughput when compared to current manual methods, says RTS.
This improvement in efficiency gives a typical payback period of less than two months.
This scalable product line from RTS Life Science is available as a benchtop or automated system.
As well as dramatically reducing sample preparation time by 90%, RTS SolidPrep provides benefits including significant reductions in solvent use and waste, and reproducible homogenisation without localised heating or increased drug degradation.
In addition, it offers disposable in-vessel processing, eliminating the need to find and clean glassware and significantly reducing the risk of sample cross talk and operator drug exposures.
The RTS SolidPrep is available to purchase from April 2008 as an evaluation package.
The evaluation package contains the SolidPrep homogenisation instrument, a six tube capacity processing head, all consumables required during the evaluation period together with consultancy and support from RTS Life Science.
SolidPrep is proven to dramatically improve efficiency and quality in tablet sample preparation.
The evaluation package allows customers to easily evaluate the RTS SolidPrep process, with only minor changes to existing manual analytical methods.
By proving the technology is a cost effective solution on the bench, customers can fast track subsequent adoption of the automated SolidPrep system where appropriate.
