AAIPharma Services Corp. / Cambridge Major Laboratories, Inc. Selects Freeslate Powder Dispensing System To Increase Its Solid State Capabilities
SUNNYVALE, CA and WILMINGTON, NC (PRWEB) September 30, 2015 -- Freeslate, Inc., the leading provider of high throughput research solutions for biopharmaceutical development, today announced that AAIPharma Services Corp. / Cambridge Major Laboratories, Inc. (AAI/CML) has acquired a CM Protégé Powder Dispense System to support its existing Freeslate Core Module system for solid state screening and characterization. As Contract Development and Manufacturing Organizations (CDMOs) continue to adopt automation, AAI/CML is leading the way by deploying reliable, modular Freeslate systems dedicated to solid state screening and characterization to greatly increase the quality and capacity of work within its Weert, Netherlands facility.
The CM Protégé Powder Dispense System will allow researchers to eliminate bottlenecks associated with the repetitive task of dispensing numerous powders. With the large capacity, flexibility in dose format, and wide dynamic range of compatible materials facilitated by the Freeslate dispensing technologies, the CM Protégé Powder Dispense System was a natural choice for AAI/CML.
“Freeslate’s CM Protégé Powder Dispense System allows us to provide high throughput solutions for our clients in need of solid state screening, as we are expanding and positioning our Weert, Netherlands facility as our Center of Excellence for Solid State Chemistry,” said Syed Husain, Chief Commercial Officer of AAI/CML. “This type of equipment is what allows us to provide quick turnaround on solid state screening for our clients, enabling us to pass the benefits of improved productivity and data quality on to customers.”
“We are very pleased that AAI/CML has selected the CM Protégé to augment its existing Freeslate workflows,” said John S. Senaldi, President and CEO of Freeslate. “They have realized the benefits of automating solid state screening and characterization with the adoption of our Core Module system. The company’s choice to use the Freeslate system as they expand their research capabilities speaks to the value these systems offer drug development researchers.”
