12730 | Digital Tablet Disintegration Apparatus
|
Here’s how a Digital Tablet Disintegration Apparatus typically works:
- Test Setup:
- The apparatus consists of a set of test stations, each containing a basket-rack assembly. The basket holds the sample tablets or capsules.
- Immersion Medium:
- A liquid medium, typically simulated gastric fluid or simulated intestinal fluid, is used to simulate the conditions the tablets would encounter in the digestive system.
- Temperature Control:
- The apparatus often includes a temperature control system to maintain the immersion medium at a specified temperature, usually 37°C to simulate body temperature.
- Up and Down Movement:
- The basket-rack assembly moves up and down in the immersion medium at a constant rate. This movement mimics the natural conditions in the gastrointestinal tract, where tablets or capsules are subjected to mechanical stress.
- Time Measurement:
- A digital timer is used to precisely measure the time it takes for the tablets or capsules to disintegrate. The disintegration time is a critical parameter for pharmaceutical formulations, as it affects the release of the active ingredient and its absorption by the body.
