Telstar has planned to introduce few new technological advances in containment and lyophilization for life sciences applications at P-MEC India, which is to be held in Mumbai between December 1 and 3.

Telstar will be showing at P-MEC India its new range of Flexible-Wall Containment Isolators which have been developed for special applications in which safe, controlled working conditions are required but with a low investment cost. They can provide the same degree of containment as rigid isolators and are ideal for clinical and small scale production. They can also be used in single-use applications where it is more convenient to dispose of the isolator between batches than to validate and perform exhaustive decontamination and cleaning procedures.

On the other hand, Telstar will show some models from its flagship range of lyophilization equipment for research and development applications. On display will be the LyoBeta 35, which is specially adapted to the needs of the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry. LyoBeta 35 makes it possible to develop cycles (recipes) that can be readily exported to production equipment, or to carry out improvements to the freeze-drying cycle. The product on display is finished in stainless steel and can be installed in a sterile environment. It also features the LyoSuite Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system, which can include the DPE (Dynamic Parameters Estimator) that allows freeze-drying process parameters, such as the product temperature and the vapour mass flow, to be determined using non-invasive methods.

Telstar develops, provides and services high-tech equipment for the life sciences market, specifically for the biotechnology, nanotechnology, traditional technology and medicine market.
