Rapid pKa measurement
A new automated instrument for rapid measurement of pKa during early stage pharmacokinetic tests has been introduced by Sirius Analytical Instruments
'Gold-standard' for pKa and logP measurement
Used in pharmaceutical laboratories to measure physicochemical properties, which profoundly affect the behaviour of drugs and other ionisable molecules
The applications laboratory is principally used by customers to determine pKa by UV absorption and/or potentiometry, logP by potentiometric assay, and logD by isocratic chromatography, intrinsic solubility by potentiometric assay, and miniaturised shake flask solubility and permeability by the Pampa method.
Instruments located in the laboratory include the Sirius GLpKa, D-PAS, ProfilerSGA, ProfilerLDA, Pion pSOL, mSOL and Pampa Evolution.
The new applications laboratory tests hundreds of samples per year, and is managed by two full-time chemists.
The laboratory has been totally refitted and designed to offer the applications service.
All the instruments in the laboratory are dedicated to analysis, and are available for commissioning all year round.
No research is performed in the applications laboratory.
All new research work is undertaken in a separate research-only laboratory.
The applications laboratory is fitted with production standard instrumentation running released versions of the instrument software packages.
