Waste Shot Collector Simplifies Inhaler Testing

The model WSC2 waste shot collector is a compact, benchtop unit that captures the waste doses produced during inhaler testing. Suitable for both metered dose inhaler (MDI) and dry powder inhaler (DPI) applications, it minimizes exposure to the test product. It also eliminates the need to use a ventilated area for testing. Multi-dose MDIs and DPIs are tested for dose uniformity over the entire contents to verify consistent delivery. The testing involves the capture and measurement of ten doses throughout the life of the inhaler: the first three, the middle four and the last three. All other doses are fired to waste into a fume cupboard or ventilated enclosure with appropriate drug capture facilities. Used with a standard vacuum pump, the device applies the same conditions during firing to waste that are applied during testing. Waste doses are captured in a disposable cartridge with the capacity to collect hundreds or thousands of shots.
