[Announcement of Webinar] Agilent Pharma / Biopharma Virtual Summit 2021

Agilent dissolution tester online UV system

The Cary 60 spectrophotometer, when combined with a pump in an online UV system, along with the sampling station 850-DS, allows for filter filtration and simultaneous sampling into test tubes or HPLC vials after filtration. **Evaluation Method for Drugs in Dissolution Testing Using Fiber Optics** Using fiber optics enables direct quantification of drugs within the vessel without the need for sampling. For example, when using fiber optics in dissolution testing for the evaluation of crystallization suppression of solid dispersions aimed at improving solubility, detailed dissolution profiles can be obtained through measurements at short intervals, as no sampling is required.

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

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.

• 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.

Management of test data, data integrity, dissolution testing software!

Since 2015, guidance on data integrity (DI) has been issued by the MHRA (UK Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency), WHO, FDA, and PIC/S, and its importance has been increasing in recent years. DI is defined as "the completeness, consistency, and accuracy of data. Data that is complete, consistent, and accurate is recorded with attributes of traceability, legibility, and contemporaneity, and is either original data or a true copy, and is accurate." It also ensures that pharmaceuticals meet the required quality standards. DWS is the optimal software for ensuring data integrity in dissolution testing. It supports access management, data tampering prevention, and backup, allowing for the management and control of dissolution testers and their peripheral devices with just this one software, making complex methods and data management easier to handle.

In the manufacturing industry, while a lot of quality and process data has been accumulated, there are still many cases where its value is not fully utilized. In this seminar, two companies will introduce examples of using JMP to engage in data analysis and improvement activities. 【Presentation Overview】 1. "Unraveling the 'Personality' of Batteries!" Utilizing "Raw Data" for "Proactive Quality" Hasegawa Kaoru and Shimada Kohei from Energy With Co., Ltd. 2. Why Can't We Find the Root Cause of Defects? ~Data-Driven Improvement Practiced with JMP~ Tsuji Ikumi from Atfields Technology Co., Ltd. 【Target Audience】 - Individuals involved in quality control, quality assurance, production technology, and manufacturing technology in the manufacturing industry. - Those who want to utilize quality data and process data to work on quality and process improvements. - Anyone interested in data analysis and quality/process improvement using JMP (both JMP users and non-users are welcome). ▼Details & Registration https://www.jmp.com/ja/events/seminars/non-series/2026/09-18-manufacturing

In the automotive and aerospace industries, there is an urgent and critical challenge to improve fuel efficiency, leading to active development of materials and component manufacturing technologies aimed at further weight reduction. Uchida Co., Ltd., which boasts high technical capabilities in the molding and processing of CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced plastic) with excellent characteristics such as lightweight, high strength, high rigidity, corrosion resistance, and heat resistance, has introduced the first CFRP-compatible large pellet 3D printer "Heron AM" from Caracol, aiming for innovation for the future and energetically working on circular component shaping and manufacturing. In this seminar, COO Junpei Ochiai will practically explain, using videos, the motivation for the introduction, CFRP molding and component shaping technologies, reduction of personnel involved in the molding manufacturing process, examples of achieving low costs through re-resourcing of molds after use, comparisons with conventional methods and case studies, efforts to reduce carbon dioxide through material circulation, initiatives for a circular economy, and commissioned shaping services.
