Setting The Standard since 1951.

When Teledyne Hanson Research built the first dissolution tester, they didn’t realize they were laying the foundation of modern quality testing for pharmaceuticals. Here we are half a century later, pioneering the next generation of equipment that will keep tomorrow’s medication safe and effective.

Diffusion testing is a release rate test of an active pharmaceutical ingredient in semisolid form as it permeates through a skin-like membrane into solution. Diffusion replicates the process of skin-applied medicine as it permeates the skin into the body for local or systemic action. It is ideal for the quality control of topical preparations. Semisolid preparations such as creams, ointments, and gels must penetrate the layers of the skin to have benefit.

The new Phase One Disintegration Tester from Teledyne Hanson Research delivers fast, efficient testing in compliance with USP and and their harmonized EP and JP methods. Designed for speed, precision, and ease of use, the Phase One Tester provides a compact, cost-effective solution for labs performing disintegration testing during new product development and manufacturing quality control.
