High throughput screening is more and more useful to shorten the formulations time-to-market. Turbiscan AGS integrates the Turbiscan LAB stability analyzer, a robot, a storage station and a smart software for automatic sample handling and reporting. This concept enables automated management of aging tests from sample storage at different temperatures to shelf-life analysis.

Automated aging station
Up to 54 Samples, stored in 3 independent racks at a specific temperature, are transported to the instrument using an automated robotic arm. The sample is analyzed and results are automatically reported without user intervention.

End-user stability conditions
Turbiscan AGS measures stability in relation to the real use and storage conditions of the formulation. The information provided represents true stability (no mechanical stress, no dilution, adapted temperature).
Turbiscan Stability Index
TSI scale provides a single value to rapidly asses and rank formulation stability independently of occurring phenomena. It is now possible to evaluate sample stability with just one number.
