A new high-resolution spectrometer takes centre stage, aiming to move ultrasonic technology from hospitals and submarines into the pharmaceutical laboratory
The new HTP ultrasonic spectrometer greatly improves throughput and productivity for routine or higher volume applications and has the added capability of semi-automated sample introduction.
This allows for the fast filling, emptying and cleaning of the ultrasonic cells.
It is ideal for analysis of large quantities of samples, to study batch to batch variation, sample stability, composition, the presence of crystals or aggregates, particle size etc.
It is ideal for measuring a wide variety of liquid systems, from dilute solutions to concentrated emulsion.
The high resolution ultrasonic/acoustic spectrometer has the capacity for process development and monitoring in real time.
One of the applications is concentration measurements, other related applications are ingredient and formulation consistency (composition, structure), process impurity analysis, batch to batch variation, etc.
The technology can be used for static fingerprint measurements or for dynamic analysis of systems.
High resolution ultrasonic spectroscopy can address and solve many of these concerns.
It provides capabilities for fast analysis of raw materials, intermediates for final products and allows fast adjustment of manufacturing parameters, thus achieving the desired quality of the final products.
It allows the generation of information on product quality in real time.
Previously pharmaceutical process monitoring involved temperature, pressure flows, pH and other physical parameters, and now ultrasonic spectroscopy can be used for at-line testing or for fast offline testing as a primary means of ultrasonic process monitoring.
This yields data which provides information on various stages of the process.
The HR-US HTP has two 1ml cells for parallel or differential sample analysis, variable speed pump system (speed from 130ml/min to 25ml/min), a frequency range of 2 to 18MHz (cells with extended frequency range are available on request) and high resolution and reproducibility (10-5% for velocity and 0.1% attenuation).
