Photostability Chamber

Photostability Chambers are developed according to the ICH 1Qb guidelines keeping in mind that light testing is an integral part of the stress testing. The chambers closely monitor temperature, Humidity (optional) and light intensity on the drug and drug substance.

The chambers are provided with a glass door for sample viewing & quick retrieval. They are connected through Ethernet to state-of-the-art 21 CFR Part 11 ready software that provide tools for viewing, trending, alarm management, audit trails, MKT & many other such features so as to comply with regulatory guidelines.
