Universal Test Platform for Pharmaceuticals: Hydrogels, Syringes, and Beyond
Jan 17 2024
To ensure that the pharmaceutical industry complies with laws and regulations, all new drugs or other products must be thoroughly tested to ensure their safety and quality.
Anton Paar provides the Universal Testing Machine (UTM) Micro for mechanical, rheological, and other testing methods that are used for a selection of pharmaceutical and biomedical samples and tools: semi-solids, hydrogels, and hydrogel-based products as well as syringes.
With the UTM Micro, you can cover all of the following applications with just one instrument:
- Perform syringe tests for QC and testing of injectability
- Measure rheological properties of semisolid hydrogel and monitor curing behavior
- Measure fatigue behavior and compression strength of hydrogels
- Conduct tribological tests on hydrogels for biomedical engineering
The UTM Micro is a testing platform, which, as one single device, can carry out rheological, tribological, syringe, and fatigue tests as well as monitor the curing behavior of hydrogels. The UTM is a testing platform that provides valuable support for the development and quality control of pharmaceutical applications.
To find out more, you can register for our webinar on February 5, 2024. The webinar will give insights on the following topics:
- Basics of rheology and mechanical testing
- Application examples: hydrogels and medical products
- Test methodologies: rotational and oscillatory rheology, tribology, syringe testing, fatigue, UV curing
- Testing setups for the UTM Micro testing platform
