Breakthrough Instrument to Test Inhalable Drug Delivery Devices

May 6, 2008 - Cambridge Consultants has announced that it is developing a low-cost, portable instrument that has the potential to revolutionise the way certain drug delivery devices are tested. Through the innovative use of technology, the new device can mirror the performance and level of data provided by current laboratory laser diffraction measurement machines, for an estimated one-hundredth of the cost when integrated into a high volume device. The device measures the droplet size distribution in an airstream, a technique used in testing respiratory drug delivery devices.

The details can be read here.
