The facilities, staffed by qualified chemists, are equipped to provide clients with a full analytical service - including the following techniques:
Physical properties:
Appearance, mean weight, fill weight, hardness, disintegration, dimensions, loss on drying, friability.
Identification:
Our comprehensive range of equipment allows us to work with the wide range of techniques called for in different test methods and monographs.
Dissolution:
Both USP and EP methods are available. Single time point, or sustained release. Water, or simulated gastric/intestinal fluid. Our knowledge of dissolution stems from the large Tillomed product range, already tested in-house.
Assay:
UV, HPLC, or titration. Single or multiple component products can be tested to current monographs or your own validated methods.
Impurities / Related substances:
From TLC to multi-wavelength gradient HPLC.
Stability Trials:
Long term, and accelerated testing is available in accordance with ICH guidelines.
High Performance Liquid Chromatography:
Perkin Elmer HPLC systems linked to the laboratory computing network, ensures data security and tests for active ingredients / excipients, and the quantification / profiling of excipients.
Capillary Gas Chromatography:
Also includes a headspace GC.
Dissolution:
The dissolution baths are complemented by a media preparation system, enabling increased throughput when working with degassed media.
UV/Vis Spectrophotometry:
Stand-alone UV/Vis spectrophotometers enable multiple products to be analysed simultaneously.
Infra-red Spectrophotometry:
Our FTIR is fitted with a Specac ‘Golden Gate’, allowing increased sample throughput, due to reduced sample preparation time.
Physical Testing:
Tests are available for the physical testing of capsules and tablets.
