In the pharmaceutical industry, two complementary taste analysis solutions are proposed for bitterness level quantification and solid form dynamic analysis.
Advantages of Alpha MOS Taste Analysis Solutions
- Objective and reliable taste measurement
- No safety issues linked to human tests
- Fast delivery of results for taste profiling
- Very sensitive techniques for taste measurement
Bitterness Measurement
The Alpha MOS laboratory proposes analytical services to assess the bitterness level of substances dissolved in a liquid solution.
Bitterness Measurement Applications
The bitterness prediction module from Alpha MOS can evaluate the bitterness level of new chemical entities or active principles in pharmaceutical formulations.
Advantages of Alpha MOS Bitterness Analysis Solution
- Avoid safety concerns linked to human testing
- Avoid unpleasant testing of bitter substances during taste analysis
Solid Form Dynamic Analysis
The taste analyzer can be combined with the Solid Form Dynamic Analyzer (S-FDA) to measure dynamically the taste of solid form drugs during their dissolution phase.
Solid Form Dynamic Analysis Applications
Especially in the pharmaceutical industry:
- Simulation of buccal dissolution mecanism for taste analysis
- Simulation of tablet coating dissolution for taste evolution measurement
- Checking taste masking effectiveness & homogeneity of the coating when dissolving
Advantages of Alpha MOS Solid Form Dynamic Analysis Solution
- Automated measurement method for taste analysis over time
- Avoid unpleasant and hazardous human testing for taste analysis purposes.
