SP Scientific has announced further investment into its sophisticated training and demonstration laboratory facility at its Warminster, Philadelphia, USA site.
The demonstration laboratory will now be able to offer customers and potential clients the opportunity to book an appointment to test/demo SP Scientific’s latest products, including the AdVantage Pro, Benchtop Pro and LyoStar 3 Freeze Dryer with SMART, ControLyo and TDLAS. If required, speciality items can be brought in upon customer request.
The 1,200 square foot facility will also continue to accommodate SP Scientific's popular four-day Lyophilisation Laboratory training courses. The next course, due to run from September 30th – October 3rd, 2014, will cover freeze drying and cycle optimisation techniques and focus on the freeze-drying process from formulation and thermal analysis to cycle development and optimisation, packaging and troubleshooting. The course will include hands-on use of freeze dryers, as well as other equipment and technology used in lyophilisation cycle development, such as differential scanning calorimetry, freeze-dry microscopy and moisture analysis.
In addition to providing an extensive demonstration and training capability – the SP Scientific course allows attendees the chance at in-depth discussions with application specialists to investigate the feasibility and optimise freeze-drying cycles for their products. To date, over 150 attendees from pharmaceutical and biotechnical companies throughout the world have attended this one-of-kind course.
