Lightweight flow control
PQ-FV In-Line Flow Controls can be easily added to existing circuitry and are lightweight and compact in size. Since it is a tube-to-tube connection, in-line flow controls may be installed as a meter-in or meter-out device. The PQ-C Elbow Controls are suitable
for low cost and lightweight applications when mounting directly to an NPT port on a cylinder or valve is required. In the meter-out versions, intake air
flows freely through the flow control; exhaust air is metered out through an adjustment screw. With the meter-in
series, air is metered in through an adjustment screw; exhaust air flows freely. Control is varied through a finely
threaded adjustment screw. A locking nut is provided so it can be secured in its final setting.
n Small, compact size; n Design flexibility and fast response; n Complete rotation of the valve body
around the bolt allows for optimum positioning of tubing;
n Special adjustment needle design allows large adjustment ranges with high precision;
n Ideal for use with polyurethane, nylon, polyethylene and polypropylene tubing;

Analytics service for lab data
ICON, the provider of outsourced development services to the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device industries, has announced ICONIK Labs, the latest service to leverage its ICONIK technology platform. ICONIK Labs is an interactive
analytics tool that allows Clinical and Medical team members to visualise, analyse and report on large volumes of laboratory data in real time. Using ICONIK Labs’ advanced
visualisation capabilities, project teams can interact with data and view trends at any level of detail, including patient, site, study or across an entire program through a series of dynamic filters. ICONIK Labs enhances a study’s
quality by instantly identifying sites with an unusual number of lab values outside the normal range and can also improve patient safety by providing Hy’s Law analysis which assists with the detection of subjects at risk of Drug
Software a significant factor for particle sizing
A modern operating environment led independent, commercial materials testing laboratory NSL Analytical Services (Cleveland, US), to the Mastersizer 3000 from Malvern Instruments when it came to choosing a laser diffraction particle size analyzer to extend testing capabilities. “The software really is the shining
star of this product,” said Brian Bacher, Technical Specialist at NSL. “It makes the Mastersizer 3000 feel radically different from other systems on the market and a really great instrument to use. I especially like the live trends which make it so quick and easy to compare data sets,” he continued. NSL provides physical material
testing to multiple verticals including the aerospace, ceramics and powder metallurgy industries. Particle size and particle size distribution are critical, performance-defining variables for many. In the past, NSL met the associated need for particle size analysis through an out-sourced service but

with growing demand, the decision was taken to bring this increasingly important analytical method in-house. “Our customers need particle
size and particle size distribution data to optimise their products and the processes used to manufacture them” continued Mr Bacher. “We made the
decision to invest in our own laser diffraction particle size analyzer to ensure fast and efficient turnaround in the face of growing demand. Throughout the research and purchasing process, we assessed at least five to six different systems before selecting the Mastersizer 3000,” he concluded.
The Mastersizer 3000 was the
newest laser diffraction system assessed by the NSL Analytical Services team, a factor that was most evident from the software interface. Recently celebrating its second
birthday, the instrument sets the standard for laser diffraction particle sizing. With a small footprint and dynamic range of 0.01 to 3500 microns it efficiently delivers precise and robust wet and dry particle sizing for the broadest selection of sample types The innovative software was
designed from the outset to ease the analytical burden and ensure that users of all levels could achieve reliable measurement. It includes features that inform method development and transfer as well as making it straightforward to verify measurement stability in real time.

Induced Liver Injury (DILI). Commenting on the new service,
Dr Steve Cutler, Group President, ICON Clinical Research Services, said: “ICONIK Labs has transformed how study teams review and analyse laboratory data and has enabled a fresh approach to combining lab parameters to review study trends. It enables study teams to quickly uncover actionable insights that support earlier, more informed decision-making and more efficient trial management.” ICONIK Labs is the latest service
to leverage the ICONIK technology platform and follows ICON’s recent announcement of ICONIK Monitoring. ICONIK Monitoring is a new service that improves quality and reduces the costs of clinical development through more effective use of monitoring resources.
