Automated inhaler testing specialist Astech Projects has announced that it will launch its new Blister Strip Recovery Workstation at the upcoming DDL 2018 meeting.
The company will be exhibiting the workstation, which automatically pierces and washes DPI blister pockets for preparation of analytical samples using an automatically controlled metering pump. The system is able to handle blister strips of various sizes, the company said.
According to Astech, the automated process is accurate and repeatable, resulting in more consistent data than is possible with manual recovery. The company adds that the workstation offers safety benefits by eliminating the use of sharp instruments that are necessary for manual piercing of blisters.
