October 15, 2019 ---- Thermo Fisher Scientific (the US), a biotechnology product development company, launched a new handheld X-ray fluorescence analyzer - IonicX XRF Analyzer that can help pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical manufacturers to verify the identity of ionic salts in warehouses within seconds. According to the company, the new technology helps save time and money that is otherwise used on conventional analysis techniques.
This is achieved by directly putting laboratory-grade capabilities into the hands of raw material, and quality control managers irrespective of their location in the manufacturing facility said, Thermo Fisher.
It has the capability to identify and authenticate the five most-used salts in biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical manufacturing, including magnesium chloride (MgCl2), sodium chloride (NaCl), potassium chloride (KCl), sodium hydroxide (NaOH), and calcium chloride (CaCl2).
