ONE WEEK TO GO!

Only 1 week left to register for our upcoming #webinar “Viscosity in Pharmaceuticals”, hosted by @RheoSense

If you work in pharmaceutical formulation, research and development or quality control you do not want to miss this webinar!

We will be sharing examples of how viscosity can be used to analyze protein and antibody formulations and will show data demonstrating rate sweeps, temperature sweeps, determining formulation stability and composition, and finally injectability.

DID YOU KNOW?

Protein-based drugs are the fastest growing class of drugs for the treatment of many diseases in humans.

Viscosity can be used in early-stage candidate selection to identify which drugs will likely cause issues in manufacturing and production down the road.

Join us for a webinar on 10 June 2021 as we discuss various applications of viscosity measurements in pharmaceuticals, specifically protein and antibody formulations.

m-VROC: Cost-Effective and Accurate Viscosity Measurements for Inks, Protein and Biological Solutions

N-Wissen GmbH is glad to introduce the m-VROC – a leading automated, small sample viscometer used worldwide by different companies and leading research universities. Capable of the most demanding applications including small sample protein therapeutics, m-VROC™ features the widest dynamic range (high shear rate viscosity measurements up to 1,400,000 s-1) with as little as 50 microliters of sample.

With m-VROC™ Technology, we took the standard principles of rheometry and created a dynamic micro-sample viscometer by adding microfluidics while reducing the size of the device with MEMS (micro-electrical mechanical systems) manufacturing. The result was a new platform which offers capabilities that are well beyond the limits of conventional viscometers in not only the sample volumes required, but the measurement range and precision.

Scientific Principle:
The measuring cell or “chip” contains a rectangular slit flow channel constructed of borosilicate glass, with a uniform cross-sectional area. The sample is injected at a constant flow rate though the flow channel where multiple pressure sensors mounted within the base monitor the pressure drop from the inlet to the outlet. The pressure drop is correlated with the shear-stress at the boundary wall. The shear rate and shear stress are directly related to the geometry of the rectangular slit and the flow rate which allow for viscosity measurements.

Applications: Bio-pharmaceutical & Protein Therapeutics, Ceramic, Coatings, Cosmeceuticals, Food & Beverages, Fracking, Inks, Rechargeable Battery and Fuel, Cells
