Copley Scientific has announced the launch of an upgraded NGI Assistant for automated drug recovery from NGI cascade impactors for inhaler testing. According to Copley, the new model features a simplified interface and shorter cycle times compared to the previous model.
The NGI Assistant automatically dispenses solvent into up to 3 NGI cup trays at a time, provides gentle agitation to dissolve the drug, and fills standard HPLC vials with samples of solution for analysis. The system can accommodate induction ports and preseparators as needed and can be customized for non-standard HPLC vials.
The NGI assistant also can handle dual HPLC vial racks, making it possible to prepare a back-up set of samples at the same time as the primary samples, the company said.
