Somerset, NJ – Logan Instruments Corp., a leader in pharmaceutical testing instrumentation released the latest version of USP apparatuses 3 and 7 combined in one single unit dubbed DISSO III-7.
Known for their premier instrumentation and advanced technological designs in transdermal testing, Logan Instruments has designed and marketed an individual apparatus 3 (it’s DISSO III Classic) and an apparatus 7 (it’s RRT-7 Release Rate Tester) in the past. With limited choices, increasing demand and economic practicality for USP apparatuses 3 and 7, Logan Instruments Corp. has created a new instrument which combines both USP methods with special features.
The DISSO III-7 offers the uniquely designed carried over evaporation caps that prevents evaporation, a big concern in sustained release dissolution using apparatus 3 and help keep uniform testing environment. There is a tuber carrier, where all the tubes can be moved at once. The carrier also provides individual caps for each tube to avoid evaporation. Logan Instruments have improved their latest model by having a centered dipping arm to keep all sample shafts perpendicular to the outer tubes.
In order to run both USP testing methods, one only needs separate Dip Racks and Tube Carriers. Everything else remains the same with no additional interchangeable parts.
Finally, the DISSO III-7 can be automated with Logan Instruments’ new DSC-37 System Controller/SYR-8L-10ml Syringe Pump/SCT-240L Sample Collector, combined as the Automated System DISSO-III-7.
This instrumentation is perfect for all dosage forms including solid dosage forms. USP 3 is where scientists are testing drugs in a reciprocating cylinder environment, which represents the gastrointestinal tract. Scientists can find out what is being released from a solid dosage form within each stage of the GI tract.
The DISSO III-7 can test solid dosage forms for USP 7 as well as the human body implants, which can be beneficial in releasing drugs. USP 7 method mimics the bloodstream and can find the release rates of implants.
