SP Scientific has announced that it will exhibit its latest Virtis/FTS freeze dryers and lyophilisation systems at Pep Talk 2011 in San Diego, California.
Visitors will be able to see the latest SP Scientific freeze-drying and lyophilisation system for improving process control and minimising issues of scale-up with the introduction of the Lyostar 3.
Configured with controls and instrumentation including Smart Freeze-Dryer Technology and Praxair's Controlyo On Demand Nucleation Technology, the Lyostar 3 provides a lab-scale system for formulations studies, process optimisation and scale-up work.
Visitors will be able to learn more during a 15min presentation given by SP's vice president, Mark Shon, on 12 January 2011 at 3.35pm.
The Lyostar 3 is suited for applications such as process development for scale-up, product processing, stability studies and formulations work.
Available with Controlyo Nucleation On-demand Technology, the Lyostar 3 provides protein-discovery scientists with precise control over their freeze-drying processes.
This technology was developed to control the freezing step of lyophilisation.
Controlyo technology on the Lyostar 3 enables nucleation control by regulating the nucleation temperature to within 1C of its freezing point.
The results are improved product uniformity, quality and yield.
Visitors to the SP Scientific booth will also be able to review and sign up to the company's 2011 programme of free Lyolearn educational webinars.
