PharMed® tubing has been shown to deliver significant benefits for pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and diagnostic applications. Here are two examples:

A pharmaceutical manufacturer replaced the group’s silicone tubing with PharMed in a liquid and liquid suspension filling operation. The manufacturer realized significant cost savings by not having to replace the tubing as often and therefore reducing downtime. Because of the consistency of volumetric delivery, the manufacturer does not have to spend time calibrating the pump.

Another pharma manufacturer began using PharMed tubing in a purification process. The process was logging excessive downtime because of spallation associated with the tubing. Particles from the tubing clogged the filters. By substituting PharMed tubing for their existing tubing, the company experienced cost savings from reduced filter usage, along with less downtime and decreased maintenance time.

Its long flex life is one of the main reasons for using PharMed in vessel fill, media flow, and air and gas lines in bioreactor systems. However, lot traceability and heat weldable characteristics are also major pluses. Heat weldability allows a seamless sterile connection of two tubing ends.

PharMed Tubing is also:

  • Repeatedly autoclavable
  • Radiation sterilizable
  • Ozone and UV light resistant
  • Designed to meet USP Class VI and NSF criteria and FDA compliant

Diseñar un hospital de animales significa comprometer entre lo práctico y lo profético. Es fácil criticar los primeros planos de planta u hospitales más antiguos, pero ¿cómo podrían estos arquitectos haber previsto futuras opciones de tratamiento y servicio? Los hospitales veterinarios están diseñados para atender la tecnología médica, y la tecnología evoluciona constantemente. Aunque no podemos predecir todo el equipo y las características que ofrecerán los futuros hospitales, esta lista proporciona un punto de partida. Ya sea que esté planeando construir o remodelar, considere estos elementos: Aparcamiento Señalización Iluminación de seguridad y protección. Reliefarea para mascotas Cámara de seguridad Entrada del edificio Escape de aire / animal Superficies antideslizantes Área de recepción Caja registradora Computadora Teléfono / sistema de intercomunicación Sistema de tarjetas de crédito Bloqueo de cajones Diseño de mostrador ergonómico.

BD Unveils Nano Pen Needle for Accurate Subcutaneous Insulin Injections

BD is releasing its new Nano pen needle designed for achieving consistent depth during subcutaneous injections, particularly for diabetic patients on insulin. Intramuscular injections can occur when a patient applies too much force to many of the existing injection devices. The new BD Nano compensates for this by spreading the load across the injection site and preventing the needle from going to far under the surface of the skin. In a study, this design helped to achieve more reliable injections which led to an 8-fold decrease in “calculated intramuscular injection risk,” according to BD. “The launch of BD Nano 2nd gen pen needles reinforces BD’s commitment to providing the most advanced solutions possible for people with diabetes to help achieve better clinical management of insulin use,” said Stanislav Glezer, MD, MBA, global vice president of Medical Affairs for BD, a press release. “In addition to the added clinical benefits the latest BD innovation brings, the new ergono
