Automation is FDA compliant

A Metrohm UK product story
Edited by the Manufacturingtalk editorial team Jan 19, 2005

Metrohm Titrinos and Titrandos perform analyses automatically and offer time savings as well as improved reproducibility and accuracy.

Metrohm is the name for quality instruments and services for chemical ion analysis all over the world.

Headquartered in Switzerland, we provide top-class service and instrumentation for all fields of chemical ion analysis.

The Metrohm Titrinos, and Titrandos, have long been able to perform analyses automatically.

The advantages of a sample processors or sample changers are found not just in the amount of time saved by the laboratory personnel, but because automatic systems control operating sequences and improve reproducibility and accuracy.

The risk of operator errors is reduced to a minimum.

Our range of Sample Processors and Sample Changers has been designed so that every user can find a suitable model.

The new Sampler Processor generation includes sample preparation, sample handling and liquid handling to a degree which previously was only possible with laboratory robots.

Sophisticated sensor technology guarantees the highest possible degree of operational safety.

Identical sample preparation and handling increases the reproducibility as does optimal rinsing.

Basic operations of modern automation such as pipetting, transferring, aliquoting, and dosing have become child's play thanks to the new types of Metrohm Sample Processors.

Homogenisation and dispersion of the samples can be fully controlled.

i.e the homogeniser speed can be altered, held, or pulsed when ever required.

Reproducibility and accuracy are the alpha and omega in analysis and therefore one of the main demands placed on automation.

The Sample Processor family ensures constant dosing, exact pipetting, complete transferring and perfect repeatability when dosing in the range comfortably from 10 microliters up to 100 milliliters, i.e over no less than four orders of magnitude.

Using this technology we have developed a system to perform capsule and tablet processing.

Applications for this system include; Tablet assay Capsule assay Drug assay Content conformity Other impurities Stability analysis Quality assurance.

Metrohm USB Sample Processors - automation of intelligent titration 814 and 815 Sample Processors are extremely efficient sample changers.

Instead of being fitted with the conventional RS 232C interface, they are equipped with the so-called Universal Serial Bus (USB).

The USB is characterized by its stable and rapid communication.

The USB-ports of the Sample Processor bring automation to the Titrando family.

In this case the advantages of the Titrando are combined with the possibilities which automation provides.

Operation takes place from a PC using tiamo software so you have a top-class compact system with an extremely small footprint, but with the capability to have up to 999 samples on the rack.

Demands such as those made by GMP or FDA 21 CFR Part 11 - to mention only the electronic signature and electronic data storage - are taken into account by the tiamo software.

All the FDA regulations are complied with by the complete integration of the USB Sample Processor in to our tiamo software.

This means that automation is "fully FDA compliant".
