What is the use of dissolution tester?
A dissolution tester is used to measure the rate at which a drug dissolves in a specific liquid medium, simulating conditions in the human body. It helps ensure that pharmaceutical tablets or capsules release their active ingredients at the intended rate.
What are the principles of dissolution testing?
The principles of dissolution testing involve placing a drug dosage form (e.g., tablet or capsule) in a dissolution medium that simulates body fluids, under controlled temperature and stirring conditions. The test measures how quickly and to what extent the drug’s active ingredient dissolves over time. Key parameters include the type of dissolution apparatus, agitation speed, temperature, and the composition of the medium. The results help assess the drug’s release profile and bioavailability, ensuring consistency and efficacy in drug formulations.
Dissolution Tester Feature:
- Measures drug dissolution rate and extent in solid dosage forms.
- Single-cup design ensures independent testing.
- Manual head lifting for stable, flexible operation.
- SUS316L shafts and paddles for corrosion resistance.
- Micro-pump circulation ensures uniform bath temperature.
- Automatic control of time, temperature, and speed.
- Real-time display of preset and actual values.
- Self-diagnosis and alarm for fault detection.
