PERMETRO Bioequivalence prediction systems

PERMETRO Bioequivalence prediction systems

Realistic in vitro prediction of drug uptake – for generics, R&D and bioequivalence studies

variant

The PERMETRO system was specifically developed to accurately compare the permeation rate between generic drugs and reference medicinal products (RLDs) – even with complex in vivo absorption. It simulates intestinal absorption conditions using the PermeaPad GIT barrier and delivers precise, automated data on dissolution and permeation dynamics. Ideal as a pre-BE (bioequivalence prediction) test prior to clinical trials.

Areas of application

  • Comparison of generic vs. original active ingredients (RLD)
  • Real-time dissolution and permeation tests
  • In vitro modeling of intestinal uptake
  • R&D for new oral dosage forms
  • Pre-BE studies (bioequivalence) as an alternative to in vivo testing

Core function

⚙️ Dual pump system - Takes samples from dissolution and permeation modules simultaneously.

📈 Automated sample analysis - Time-controlled sampling and transfer to HPLC systems or AOIS 1200 autosamplers.

🧫 Simulation of intestinal absorption - PermeaPad GIT barrier realistically mimics human absorption through the intestine.

🌡️ Dry heating instead of water circulation - No water bath required - hygienic, space-saving and precise.

🔗 Compatibility with HPLC & USP Apparatus - Online connection to various HPLC brands (Waters, Agilent, Shimadzu, etc.) Supports USP Apparatus 1–7
