Achieving PAT Goals - With Process Analytics Equipment
09/05/2011 Mettler Toledo Ltd
Pharmaceutical manufacturers need to focus on quality and cost efficiency more than ever before. Traditionally, the pharmaceutical industry evaluates quality on samples tested in the laboratory. The FDA has encouraged the industry to implement in-line tools as described in the PAT initiative, with the aim to better understand and control the manufacturing process.METTLER TOLEDO's latest white paper focuses on a new technology used to assist the measurement of pH and dissolved oxygen in bioreactors, as well as in product purification and downstream processing. pH and dissolved oxygen measurements are classical tools used by pharmaceutical manufacturers. Intelligent Sensor Management (ISM), a break-through improvement to these measurement parameters, offers diagnostic tools that aid optimisation of the lifetime, performance and reliability of process analytical equipment. It is much better to predict problems before they happen, than to have to respond rapidly because a sensor has failed in service. Intelligent Sensor Management technology enables higher process safety, higher productivity and less downtime.
