Photostability Chamber

Photostability chambers are utilised for light exposure testing of drug products in the pharmaceutical industry according to ICH Q1B FDA Photostability Testing of New Drug Substances and Products. Our photostability test chambers are designed to meet option 2 of this guideline. Our chambers are available in two sizes featuring a compact benchtop and a spacious upright model with uniform light, temperature and humidity distribution.

The photostability testing chambers utilise cool white and ultraviolet-A fluorescent lamps with power levels that allow photostability tests to be carried out in less than 100 hours. Exceptional quality, innovative product features, high accuracy sensors and smart touchscreen controls provide optimum conditions for your photostability testing.
