Japanese Pharmacopoeia Standard: 'Release Testing Methods for Formulations Applied to the Skin'

The "Paddle Over Disk Method" and "Cylinder Method" are testing methods already included in the USP, and Agilent Technologies has a wealth of delivery experience with them. Additionally, we offer accessories such as the "Enhancer Cell" for ointments and creams. Even when using these accessories, Agilent's dissolution testers allow for easy height adjustment (25mm). *Refer to the Japanese Pharmacopoeia and USP 1724.

JP17 Bureau Reference Information: Mechanical Calibration Correspondence for Dissolution Test Apparatus

The 280-DS MQS measures the parameters of mechanical calibration of dissolution testers with high precision. Measurement is done hands-free thanks to sensor technology, taking only about 30 minutes per unit. It complies with 21 CFR Part 11. ★ Mechanical calibration has been included as reference information in the 17th edition revision. "To aim for reduced variability in test results through mechanical calibration, it is recommended to apply this reference information." (From the 17th Japanese Pharmacopoeia revision "Standard Methods for Mechanical Calibration of Dissolution Testers")

• Dissolution Tester

It automatically performs sample suction, filtration, and collection from the dissolution tester.

■Efficiency Automation enables easy and quick sampling. It eliminates the labor involved in dissolution testing and prevents variations in sampling volume and position that would be difficult to manage manually. All functions, including the pump, filter (optional), and sampler, are integrated into a device just 39 cm wide. One filter plate used for sample filtration contains the equivalent of eight 0.45 μm filters. ■Flexibility In addition to the standard pump function, you can select filter functions according to your needs. Sampling can accommodate test tubes, HPLC vials, and well plates. ■Accuracy The rotary piston syringe pump ensures precise sampling of the specified amount at designated sampling points. Uniformity The color touch panel of the 850-DS allows for input of the dissolution test program. ■Test Results Test data can be printed using the built-in printer.

Sustained-release formulation testing apparatus USP Apparatus 3

BIO-DIS is a dissolution tester for conducting release rate tests, compliant with USP Apparatus 3 and EP Reciprocating Cylinder tests. It is an ideal dissolution tester for formulations that require sustained release formulations and dissolution profiles at multiple pH levels.

• Dissolution Tester

Corresponds to the Japanese Pharmacopoeia, USP, and EP3. The design minimizes mechanical variation factors of the device using vessels that reduce the deviation of the container's centering.

The dissolution tester 708-DS features one-touch centering with the TruAlign vessel, and its design minimizes the risk of misalignment after installation, reducing the risk of failure during mechanical calibration. It supports Japanese language, has a two-piece paddle, and significantly improves basic operability with an expanded space between the drive unit and the vessel plate. It accommodates a wide range of dosage forms for dissolution testing, including tablets, capsules, rotating cylinders, and the paddle-over-disk method.

The "Mechanical Stitching Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed, and repairs are made without causing any thermal impact on the base material. Repairs can be carried out in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. ◎ For more details, please contact us. ◎ If a detailed technical explanation is needed, please contact us.

● The production time for casting prototypes can be shortened! Since model production is not required, the time needed to create prototypes, which previously took about a month, can be significantly reduced. ● Model costs can be reduced! By directly producing sand molds from 3D data, there is no need for model production costs. If changes to the model are necessary, they can be addressed by modifying the 3D data. ● Similar products with different shapes and dimensions can be prototyped simultaneously! With one molding process, different products with similar shapes or varying dimensions can be molded at the same time. This allows for the verification of multiple types in a short period.

In the field of collaborative robots, there is a demand for reduced startup labor, energy efficiency, and safe yet flexible handling performance. In particular, reliance on compressed air systems and complex wiring and piping can pose challenges during installation and operation. Piab's "piCOBOT Electric for ABB GoFa" is a plug-and-play electric vacuum gripper solution optimized specifically for ABB GoFa. Its all-electric design generates vacuum using only electricity, eliminating the need for compressed air. This enables the creation of a clean, quiet, and energy-efficient collaborative robot cell. Furthermore, by adopting ABB GoFa-specific software plugins, designated cables, and standard ISO machine interfaces, smooth integration into the ABB control environment is possible. This supports rapid startup and stable operation. Read the article here: https://www.piab.com/ja-jp/news/piab-launches-picobot-electric-for-abb-gofa

We have added the DL material "Explained in Manga! Let's Prevent Technical Information Leakage to the Outside with CrackProof Software Protection!" to the DNP Hypertech site. In the manufacturing industry, there is a growing awareness of measures against the leakage of technical information. Many companies seem to have already established sufficient rules and measures for information protection when exchanging data with external parties. However, when it comes to cases where in-house software suffers from cracking (unauthorized analysis and tampering) and information leaks occur, the current measures are still not adequate. We have explained the measures against technical information leakage through software protection in an easy-to-understand manga format. Please take a look.
