Ometric Announces Breakthrough Results -- 100 Percent Real-time, In-line testing of Tablets for the Pharmaceutical Industry
WASHINGTON, Feb. 20 -- Spectroscopy innovator Ometric Corporation announced today the availability of SpectrInline Processware(TM) that has achieved real-time, in-line final product testing at a rate of five tablets per second using patented Multivariate Optical Computing(TM) (MOC(TM)) technology.
Ometric Corporation's SpectrInline Processware(TM) provides real-time, in- line control of production processes and final product testing to the pharmaceutical industry. The announcement was made from the twentieth International Forum on Process Analytical Technology (IFPAC).
Final tests at the rate of five tablets per second have been performed using SpectrInline Processware. At such speeds, SpectrInline(TM) provides for testing of up to 18,000 tablets per hour. On a process line producing 100,000 tablets per hour, six SpectrInline systems can perform 100-percent final product testing.
CEO Walter Alessandrini noted that the breakthrough results obtained highlight how Ometric's innovative technology can help the pharmaceutical industry minimize product recalls, reduce waste caused by time lag, and save precious resources involved in current sample testing. And because the testing process is non-destructive and non-invasive, it will protect personnel from unnecessary exposure to product ingredients.
Ometric will provide live demonstrations of the real-time, in-line testing of tablets, blending of powers and testing of liquids and powders at PITTCON(R) 2006 in Orlando, Fla., from March 13 to 16. The PITTCON(R) exposition will be held at the Orange County Convention Center. Ometric will be in Booth # 5657.
