CAMO Software AS announces OEM agreement with Varian, Inc. for UV dissolution analysis.

CAMO Software AS , a pioneer in the multivariate statistical software market, announces an OEM agreement with Varian, Inc., a provider of analytical instrumentation, to offer CAMO’s analytical software, The Unscrambler® and The Unscrambler® Predictor (OLUP), with Varian’s dissolution systems for quality control testing in regulated pharmaceutical laboratories.

Users of Varian’s Cary® 50 line of UV-Vis spectrophotometers and Varian dissolution baths now have the capability to model release rate data from Varian UV Dissolution Software directly through The Unscrambler®. Models created in The Unscrambler® can be exported to OLUP for multicomponent analysis of release rates for the formulations being tested. Multicomponent analysis is a powerful tool for the accurate determination of release rates for dosage formulations that contain multiple active drug components, or include excipients and other matrix materials that can interfere with the results of quality control tests.

“Leveraging the power of multicomponent analysis using The Unscrambler® from CAMO Software, the Varian UV Dissolution system provides truly information-rich data to our customers in pharmaceutical laboratories” says Martin O’Donoghue, Senior Vice President of Scientific Instruments at Varian, Inc.

Varian, Inc. is the worldwide industry leader in dissolution systems used in formulation development in R&D and required for quality control testing of pharmaceutical products. Varian’s new UV Dissolution Software offers fully integrated online UV analysis of dissolution experiments using either cell-changer or fiber optic technology.

“A closer collaboration with producers of analytical instrumentation is a frequent request from our users and the newly signed agreement with Varian, Inc. is, , a response to that request” says Trond Amundsen, Vice President of Business Development at CAMO Software.
