Liquid Particle Counter meets USP 788; sizes & counts suspended particles in a wide range of liquids, including parenterals.
Point of Product
Description
The APSS-2000 Liquid Particle Counter for USP 788 sizes and counts suspended particulate matter in a wide range of liquids, including parenterals, to meet all current U.S., European and Japanese Pharmacopoeia standards. When it comes to particle monitoring quality control for liquid drug manufacturers, it’s important to meet regulations while minimizing waste.
Along with USP 788 for particles in liquids, the APSS-2000 Particle Counter has recipe functions that allow it to adapt to future regulatory changes, and its small sample volume minimizes the waste of expensive product.
The APSS-2000 Liquid Particle Counter, within Particle Measuring Systems PMS comprehensive liquid particle counter line, includes: an SLS-1000 Syringe Sampler, a LiQuilaz® eSeries Light Obscuration Spectrometer and SamplerSight Pharma Software, allowing reports to meet 21 CFR 11 regulations for electronic records and signatures.
SamplerSight Pharma Software allows operators to manage sampling requirements for batch-based operations and provides a comprehensive view of the batch information with histogram, time plot and tabular data presented in an easy-to-use format that is easily reported. SamplerSight Pharma features a validatable, user-friendly, Windows-based software with context-sensitive help.
