Dissolution of medications

This model allows for the realization of numerous experiments related to the theme of 'medications': - influence of a medication's formulation on its release, - interaction between an active species and its environment: pH, nature of the solvent... Its format is suitable for student practical work. Very stable, it allows for safe manipulation without the risk of spillage. A simplified representation of the digestive system is screen-printed on a transparent side of the model. 2 tanks (identified as A and B) are positioned at the level of the stomach and the intestine. Resistant to acids and bases, they can be filled with different solutions to simulate stomach and intestinal contents. It is recommended to use weakly concentrated solutions to ensure maximum safety for the students. 2 spaces equipped with fixing clips allow for the insertion and maintenance of electrodes to measure the pH value in the tanks. The 'medication' you want to dissolve is introduced through the orifice located at the level of the stomach. If the chosen medication resists the acidity present in the stomach, a scoop equipped with holes allows for its transfer to the intestine without mixing the solutions. One can then observe the behavior of the 'medication' in the intestine. The model accommodates all standard formats of medications: tablets, capsules...
