EFD-07 Flow-Through Cell Dissolution Tester closed loop with auto sampling

Introduction

The EFD-07 Flow-Through Cell Dissolution Tester closed loop with auto sampling is a system for testing sustained-release dosage forms. It complies with USP Apparatus 4 specifications. This system uses a closed-loop configuration where the dissolution medium is recirculated. The EFD-07 automates the sampling process for increased efficiency.

Product Overview

This USP 4 apparatus is designed for products requiring continuous medium flow, like implants or drug-eluting stents. The closed-loop design makes it suitable for low-volume dissolution testing where media preservation is important. The EFD-07 Flow-Through Cell Dissolution Tester closed loop with auto sampling features seven stations and precise valveless ceramic pump heads. The 7-inch touch screen allows for programming up to 1000 protocols, providing flexibility for various testing requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What is the EFD-07 Flow-Through Cell Dissolution Tester closed loop with auto sampling used for?

This apparatus is used to perform dissolution tests according to USP Apparatus 4, especially for sustained-release dosage forms like implants, stents, and poorly soluble drugs.

2. How does a closed-loop system work in this tester?

In a closed-loop system, the dissolution medium is pumped from a reservoir, through the cell containing the sample, and then recirculated back to the original reservoir. This is useful for tests with limited media volume.

3. Is the EFD-07 compliant with pharmacopeial standards?

Yes, the system is designed to be fully compliant with USP Apparatus 4 and European Pharmacopoeia specifications.

4. What is the advantage of valveless ceramic pumps?

Valveless ceramic pumps provide highly accurate and consistent flow rates. They are also very durable and require less maintenance than other pump types.

5. What types of products are suitable for testing with this apparatus?

This apparatus is ideal for testing products like implants, drug-eluting stents, suspensions, creams, and other sustained-release dosage forms.
