USP Simulated Gastric Fluid without Enzyme, 950 mL

Product Abstract

Imitation of gastrointestinal conditions is necessary for dissolution and pharmacokinetic studies of drug formulations. Dissolution is a routine part of Quality Control testing for most medications and dissolution methods, including required medium, are specified by Pharmacopeia monographs. The use of appropriate dissolution media during drug development stage also helps answer questions on bioavailability of the pharmaceuticals.  Simulated gastric and intestinal fluids are also used to study the safety profile of products that carry risks of unintended use like accidental ingestion.

Simulated Intestinal Fluid and Simulated Gastric Fluid test solutions are prepared according to USP specifications. We offer these products with and without enzymes to accommodate different USP testing requirements. Our 2-part formulations come with dry pre-weighted enzyme powder to be mixed in before use. This allows for longer shelf life of the product and predictable activity of the enzyme in solution.
