Introduction
The EFD-07 Open loop auto sampling with Media Selector is a USP Apparatus 4 dissolution system. It is designed for testing complex dosage forms. The system automates sampling and media changeover. This is essential for modified-release drugs requiring pH changes during a test.
Product Overview
This system is designed for dissolution testing of products like drug-eluting stents, implants, and other sustained-release dosage forms. It features seven flow-through cells and valveless ceramic pump heads for accurate and stable flow. The 4-position media selector allows for automated media changeover, simulating gastrointestinal conditions. The EFD-07 Open loop auto sampling with Media Selector complies with USP and Ph. Eur. standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. What is the EFD-07 Open loop auto sampling with Media Selector used for?
It is used to perform dissolution tests on extended or modified-release dosage forms, especially those that require a change in media during the test.
2. What is the purpose of the Media Selector?
The media selector automatically changes the dissolution media during a test. This is used to mimic the pH changes a drug experiences as it passes through the GI tract.
3. How does the open-loop system work?
In an open-loop system, fresh media is continuously pumped through the cells and the used media is collected for analysis, not recirculated.
4. Is the EFD-07 system compliant with USP standards?
Yes, it is designed to be fully compliant with USP Apparatus 4 and Ph. Eur. specifications.
5. What types of dosage forms can be tested with this system?
This system is ideal for testing products like implants, drug-eluting stents, suspensions, creams, and other modified-release dosage forms.
