Lablogic's Miniscan radio TLC scanner and Laura radiochromatography software are being used extensively within PET and nuclear medicine departments in Northern Ireland and Eire.
The company's new PET-specific laboratory information management system (LIMS), Petra, can be interfaced with all the equipment in a PET production facility, including cyclotrons, synthesis instruments, dose calibrators, balances and pH meters.
It produces a single batch report, saving time and reducing errors in the production of 18FDG and other PET radiopharmaceuticals, according to Lablogic.
This supersedes the laborious and potentially inaccurate manual recording of essential information for all aspects of the process, from the production setup and material preparation through each stage of synthesis to the final release of the product.
The company also offers a number of options in detection hardware, all of which can be tailored to PET and nuclear medicine requirements.
Included are the Flowcount radio-HPLC flow-through detector, the Miniscan TLC scanner and the AR2000 imaging scanner, all of which are compatible with Lablogic's Laura radiochromatography software.
The company has also teamed up with a number of other vendors to provide the 'Total QC Solution', which includes all of the equipment required by PET/nuclear medicine facilities and departments.
