Hplc Flowmeter From Tovatech Provides Fast, Accurate Calibration And Iq Oq Pq Validation For Fda Regulated Labs
FlowCal 5000 hplc flow meter is compact and easy to use for calibrating HPLC flow rates over the range from 0.05 to 25 mL/min.
Accurate and durable, certified FlowCal 5000 liquid flow meters from Tovatech simplify the calibrating HPLC flow rates in pharmaceutical laboratories. Offering high performance in a small package they are the ideal tools for HPLC calibration and IQ OQ PQ HPLC validation by metrology chemists.
The FlowCal 5000 is much easier, faster, and more accurate than using a timer while manually collecting fluid for gravimetric or volumetric measurement, says Tovatech director Dr. Rachel Kohn, HPLC pump troubleshooting time is reduced, and leaking check valves or piston seals are easily diagnosed. She adds that the FlowCal 5000 is designed for industries that are requiring accuracy to 1.0% of the reading with guaranteed linearity from 0.05 to 25 mL/min. The 4-digit flow rate is displayed on a large LCD and data can be output as a six digit reading via an RS232 interface to a printer or PC.
A UKAS traceable calibration certificate (the UK equivalent of NIST) is supplied with every hplc flow meter, eliminating the need for user calibration. Calibration at multiple points is available. Tovatech offers annual recalibration service.
All wetted parts that are made of PTFE, PEEK, DAI-EL, PERFLUOR, or Pyrex glass, making the FlowCal 5000 inert to all common HPLC mobile phases as well as bioinert. The FlowCal 5000 is supplied with a carrying case, cleaning kit, rechargeable batteries, and a universal mounting kit.

Safely Buying Medication Online: Fda Regulations
There are many things that smart consumers concern themselves with whenever they order medicine online. While the Internet is a convenient place to seek out things like prescription medication without having to leave the comfort of one's home, there is another side to things. The Internet, unlike the real world, is not regulated by any authority and, by nature, can be almost impossible to effectively police. There are numerous ways that even the most effective monitoring authority can fail, not the least of which are questions of jurisdiction that arise due to the Internet's nature. Therefore, the Food and Drug Administration has given a few bits of helpful advice for anyone who plans to order medicine online.
The first bit of advice is that consumers should be wary of sites that sell drugs that are illegal offline. This can appear in a number of ways, such as when the medication in question is illegal in the US, but not in other countries. This can sometimes be the case for some antidepressants, anti-impotence drugs, and weight loss products. Other times, the medication in question could be considered illegal in most countries. In such a case, the website is likely an illegitimate one that consumers should avoid at all costs. The FDA advises that US customers not purchase any illegal or restricted medication off the Internet, citing that they're banned by the FDA because they might have harmful side effects or have not been put through thorough testing.
Other concerns pointed out by the FDA are those online pharmacies that allow users to order medicine online based on questionnaires. As any doctor or medical professional will tell you, filling in a questionnaire about your symptoms and your medical history is no substitute for an actual consultation with a flesh-and-blood doctor. Arguably, even over-the-phone and webcam-based consultations don't quite come close enough to providing enough information for a proper diagnosis. Besides the possible lack of details, there is also the very real risk of an incorrect diagnosis. The dangers of taking a drug, even one that doesn't require a prescription, based solely on the results of an online questionnaire (which can only accommodate a limited number of variables) can prove disastrous to someone's health. This can become even worse if the drugs do not have FDA approval, or are known to be dangerous when taken incorrectly.
Some FDA officials have also expressed alarm over the fact that some websites do not check for the prescriptions whenever orders are placed. A number of online pharmacies sell prescription-only drugs, but do not have a visible system for checking the validity of the order by asking for a copy of the prescription. This means that just about anyone with a credit card and an Internet connection can order any prescription-only medication without having to provide a prescription. This is, according to most authorities, the largest bypassing of any FDA regulation that has been found on the Internet, aside from selling illegal medications.
The online pharmacy industry does have some form of self-policing in place. The Verified Internet Pharmacy Practice Sites (VIPPS) program put into place by the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP) is an example of this. The standards of the program are rigid and very strict, designed to make it difficult for fraudulent sites to be certified as a compliant and trustworthy online pharmacy. The guidelines the program uses determine which sites gain approval, as well as which sites retain it.
Even if a Manufacturer Complied With FDA Regulations, You Still May Be Eligible for a Denture Cream Lawsuit Settlement
Producers of food, drugs, and medical devices must comply with regulations promulgated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). These regulations vary, depending on the type of product and its intended use. For example, the FDA classifies medical devices according to their associated risks into one of three categories. Class I devices (products such as dental flosses) are considered low risk and are subject to minimal regulation, while Class III devices (such as replacement heart valves) carry much greater risks and are subject to high levels of regulation.
Sometimes, however, even a product that is considered "low risk" by the FDA can turn out to be dangerous. And when it does, because it is minimally regulated and may not have the warnings that a more strictly controlled product does, it can result in great (and unexpected) harm to users.
One type of Class I medical device for which this is true is denture cream. Denture cream manufacturers such as GlaxoSmithKline (which makes Poligrip) and Procter & Gamble (maker of Fixodent) started adding zinc to their products in the 1990s to aid in adhesion and odor control, but did not list the mineral as an ingredient because according to the FDA, Class I medical devices are not required to list product ingredients on their labels.
Zinc, while required by the body in small amounts, can lead to copper deficiency and in turn, nerve damage, when consumed in great quantities. As a result, many denture cream users have developed a debilitating disorder called neuropathy that can cause numbness in the extremities, a loss of motor skills, paralysis, and death. Although researchers have known for decades about the link between excess zinc, copper deficiency and nerve damage, it wasn't until the publication of a 2008 study in the journalNeurology that a definitive connection between the zinc in denture cream and neuropathy was established. With science on their side, hundreds of injured denture cream users are now taking legal action against GSK and P&G.
But a common concern among denture cream litigants (and potential litigants) is this: If denture cream manufacturers were in compliance with FDA regulations, can they be considered blameworthy for the harm their products cause? The answer is "Yes." The FDA is an important authority on the regulation of consumer products, but not the only one. A product can still be in violation of the law even if it complies with the FDA's rules.
The most obvious types of product defects are those related to an inherently dangerous design or a flaw in the manufacturing process. But a product can also be considered defective if has any feature that makes its unsafe for an intended use oranticipated misuse.A third type of defect, a so-called "marketing" defect, could be said to exist if a product does not provide ample warning of its dangers or does not have proper instructions for safe use.
In terms of denture cream, GSK and P&G had a responsibility to understand and express the risks of its products. It is reasonable to expect they would know that zinc, when consumed in high doses, could be dangerous, and warn about misusing denture cream (in other words, using it in large amounts). But not only did these manufacturers fail to list zinc as an ingredient, they did not (until recent pressure from lawsuits caused them to) specify how much denture cream to use, and some people applied huge amounts of the cream and ended up suffering nerve damage.
Until denture cream casesgo to trial, it remains to be seen how the courts will rule on a manufacturer's duty to consumers, and whether or not they are blameworthy for harm suffered. But it seems likely that courts will find that GSK and P&G should have reasonably known of the dangers of zinc poisoning and taken measures to reduce its risks.
