Shelf-life testing is an essential part of the development and maintenance of many drugs and other products. Having a stability testing room in-house can help businesses become more efficient.
If your work depends on climatic stability or photostability tests, either on pharmaceutical or food products, here is why CRS stability chambers can make it easier for you.
Temperature / humidity control
Stability chambers are designed with an integrated, easy-to-use control system that provides a stable humidity and temperature-controlled environment. The temperature control allows multiple setpoints, monitoring the cycles between temperatures. The room generator will maintain relative humidity control to -0.5% Rh and temperature control to -0.2°C.
CRS stability rooms are designed to simulate and reproduce the climatic conditions required by the ICH guideline.
They are validated for shelf-life studies that include the following conditions:
- Long-term & intermediate conditions of 25°C/40%RH, 25°C/60%RH, 30°C/65%RH, and 30°C/75%RH
- Accelerated storage conditions of 40°C/not more than 25%RH, 40°C/75%RH
- Refrigerated storage conditions of 2°C – 8°C (5°)
Energy savers
If thinking of your energy bills is putting you off from investing in a refrigeration solution, then you will be happy to know that these units are highly energy efficient. Stability rooms require approximately half the energy usage of standard steam injection systems.
When it comes to water consumption, numbers are also positive. More of the stability chambers available in the market can operate on less than a gallon of water per day, helping you save money on energy bills.
Convenience
Stability storage rooms provide a large volume-controlled environment at a cost-effective price. They are a great alternative to off-site stability studies and storage. At CRS, we provide chambers available for purchase or hire to suit any business’ needs.
