Company to showcase its latest THz
technology at annual meeting of American Association of
Pharmaceutical Scientists
Leading semiconductor test equipment supplier Advantest
Corporation (TSE: 6857) (NYSE: ATE) will promote its new TAS7500
THz spectroscopy and imaging systems at the AAPS annual meeting. In
San Diego, from November 3-5, 2014, scientists from pharmaceutics
and biopharmaceutics, as well as from complimentary disciplines
involved in the discovery, development, and manufacture of
pharmaceutical products, will attend the annual meeting and expo of
the American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists. At the
event, Advantest will demonstrate the capabilities of its rapid,
non-destructive spectroscopy/imaging systems for pharmaceutical
development and quality control, as well as its TAS7500TS platform
with in-line, at-line, on-line, and off-line capabilities for
R&D, quality, manufacturing and process analytical technology
(PAT).
Advantest’s configurable and compact TAS7500 THz
Spectroscopy/Imaging Systems use proprietary terahertz wave
technology to non-destructively acquire characteristic spectra
based on crystalline structure and 3D images yielding tablet
coating thickness and uniformity and detection of cracks and voids
in the tablet core. The terahertz spectroscopy is used to measure
solid phase transitions and crystalline/amorphous composition while
the terahertz imaging provides information on the strength
properties of coatings and multilayer interfaces in tablets. The
TAS7500 system offers low operating cost and higher efficiency in
method development, lab research and product manufacturing.
At AAPS, Advantest’s scientist, David Heaps will present a paper
titled, “Terahertz Imaging of Roller Compaction Ribbon Density,”
which describes why Terahertz (THz) imaging is a powerful process
tool for granulated tablet development and analysis.
