Suppository penetration tester for softening time measurement

Ensure reliable softening assessments of suppositories with precise penetration testing, essential for verifying product performance at body temperature conditions.

Measures Suppository Softening Time

The Suppository Penetration Tester PM 30 from ERWEKA GmbH is designed to accurately measure the softening time of suppositories, an essential parameter for ensuring proper drug release and efficacy. This equipment excels with its simple yet effective visual observation capabilities, accommodating up to three test stations for concurrent analysis. Suitable for pharmaceutical applications, it evaluates glycerin, cocoa butter, paracetamol, ibuprofen, laxative, and antifungal suppositories. Operating as a bench-top manual device, it integrates seamlessly into laboratory and R&D settings. The PM 30 is compliant with EP methods, supported by options like glass test tubes and immersion thermometers, ensuring both precision and adaptability in quality control processes.
