• Canned Fish Manufacturer Relies On X-Ray Inspection Technologies For Quality Assurance

  In order to consistently eliminate foreign bodies in their products – sold worldwide, a fish manufacturer relies on x-ray inspection systems from WIPOTEC-OCS. As a result, the manufacturer ensures 100% inspection of their canned foods and safeguards their decade-long reputation and consumer confidence in their products.

• Vital Tools For Centralized Statistical Monitoring Of eCOA/ePRO Data

  As the industry moves to adopt patient-centric approaches to clinical trials, there is an opportunity to adopt the best practices of QbD and risk-based methodologies to ensure that patient reported data are effectively being monitored. In this paper, we discuss the value of using advanced technology — specifically Centralized Statistical Monitoring technology - to oversee subject safety and data quality/integrity in a risk-based manner.

• Developing A Data Strategy For Clinical Trials

  Data is the most important asset that a pharmaceutical or biotechnology company has, and the number and complexity of sources of data in clinical trials is increasing all the time; at the same time, there is increasing pressure to deliver high quality data with accelerated timelines. This white paper describes a standardized approach to developing a data strategy that can be customized to a company’s current needs and can be adjusted as those needs change.

• Hydro-Electric Power Station Benefits From The Use Of Siemens Flow Meters

  Pumped storage hydro-electric power is a method of producing electricity to supply high peak power demands by moving water between water reservoirs at different elevations. At times of low electrical demand, excess generation capacity is used to pump water back into the higher reservoir. When there is higher demand, water is released back into the lower reservoir through a turbine. Pumped-storage schemes currently provide the most commercially important means of large-scale grid energy storage. Such systems greatly improve the daily capacity factor of power generating systems though out the world.

• Pharmaceutical Manufacturer Utilizes Checkweighers To Identify Inaccurately Filled Product

  In no other industry is the need for product quality and process reliability as critical as in the pharmaceutical industry. Sanofi-Aventis is the global leader in core medical areas, such as diabetes/metabolism, the cardiovascular system, thrombosis, the central nervous system, internal medicine, oncology and prevention through progressive vaccines. Checkweighers check vital insulin: in the Injectables Division, where liquid drugs such as different types of insulin or drugs for emergency medicine are produced, the packaged medical compounds are subjected to final checks using a dynamic checkweigher.

• Take Control Of Industrial Cooling With Intelligence

  Cooling and/or refrigeration is present in some form in almost every industrial production or process facility. The purpose of industrial cooling is to cool and remove heat from industrial machines, such as welding and injection molding machines, as well as industrial processes, including dairy, chemical and fermentation.

• Bypass System At Onondaga County Pump Station Enables Completion Of Vital Upgrades

  When the West Side sewage pump station in Onondaga County, New York, prepared to undergo its first major upgrade in over 30 years, the project required a bypass system to move a peak flow of 30 million gallons per day (MGD). C.O. Falter Construction was named the bypass contractor for the project and worked with Xylem to design and install a temporary system to convey the full amount of flow.

• CRO Implements A Successful, Patient-Centric Decentralized Solution For An On-going Clinical Trial During COVID-19

  A mid-sized biotech company was in the middle of conducting an open-label long-term safety study with 137 active patients across 25 sites in the US and Canada. Then the COVID-19 pandemic hit. Rho developed a customized and decentralized solution for their study that would ensure patient safety and data quality while allowing their study to progress according to FDA guidelines for conducting research during this pandemic.

• How IT Services Companies Use Field Service Software

  Mobilizing a workforce to handle the growing demand for IT deployments and telecommunications can be especially difficult for a field service provider. Rising internet usages over the past five years has increased demand for voice and data services, cloud solutions, data center technologies and growing IT service networks. From on-site field service, to help desk support, remote desktop repairs and managing a network of subcontractors that specialize it specific IT deployments, the IT industry faces a critical time in managing their enterprise, as the global demand for their services continues to rise.

• Process Characterization: Ready For The FDA?

  Realizing the benefits of process characterization requires proper planning and application of a comprehensive process characterization strategy.

• Next-Generation Purification Of Monoclonal Antibodies

  The biopharmaceutical industry is beginning to take the necessary measures to improve the efficiency of monoclonal antibodies. Learn more about how the adoption of single-use technologies is a key strategy for delivering higher productivity and enabling more flexible manufacturing processes.

• Del Monte Installs Bulk Material handling Equipment For Soup Production

  A Del Monte plant in Mendota, IL is responsible for producing canned soups that appear on grocery store shelves under more than 50 different brand names. Installation of a food-grade bulk bag discharging and metering system that would gravimetrically supply between 750 and 1500 lbs of either material to either of two 900 gallon stainless steel mix tanks in 10 minutes, would not exceed 21 feet in height and, could be quickly disassembled and cleaned using high pressure hot water allows them to producing (6) 900 gallon batches of soup base an hour.
