Endosafe® nexgen-PTS™

The Endosafe® nexgen-PTS™ is a rapid, point-of-use handheld spectrophotometer that uses USP/BET-compliant disposable cartridges for accurate, convenient, and real-time endotoxin testing and glucan concentration determination. With its small benchtop footprint, the Endosafe® nexgen-PTS™ is ideal for small to mid-size pharmaceutical companies and compounding pharmacies that want a portable, real-time testing option on the manufacturing floor. The enhanced features address your needs for decreased assay run time, simplified data entry, reduced user variability, and enhanced administration control in your endotoxin testing. The addition of a User Management functionality allows the system to be 21 CFR Part 11 compliant-ready.

Endosafe® nexgen-MCS™

This multi-cartridge benchtop LAL test equipment addresses the need for higher sample throughput while utilizing the same FDA-licensed LAL cartridge technology as the Endosafe® nexgen-PTS. The Endosafe® nexgen-MCS™ is proficient at concurrently testing up to five samples within 15 minutes for rapid, quantitative, and accurate endotoxin results. The Endosafe nexgen-MCS endotoxin testing system is comprised of five individual spectrophotometers built into a unit with a single Ethernet connector that links to your computer running EndoScan-V™ version 5.5.5 or higher, our 21 CFR Part 11 compliant-ready endotoxin measuring software.

Since each cartridge runs independently with the Endosafe nexgen-MCS, you can run your LAL testing samples as needed and not wait for a full batch of samples for testing, obtaining results in approximately 15 minutes.

Endosafe® Nexus™ Automated Endotoxin Testing System

The Endosafe® Nexus™ delivers rapid, quantitative results in a low-maintenance, high-precision package as the first fully automated robotic system which eliminates high-volume testing variables and unlocks the full potential of our Endosafe® cartridge technology. Performing endotoxin testing on large numbers of samples using traditional methods can be both time-consuming and susceptible to outside influences, such as technician errors and standard curve anomalies. The time required to prepare standards and samples can often exceed the assay time while simultaneously tying up valuable resources.

As manufacturing and technology evolve, your organization should be looking at changing methods that are heavily dependent on human interaction. Moving to automated endotoxin testing will help to lower your coefficient of variations, reduce ergonomic issues, save lab analyst time, and reduce standard curve variability. Endotoxin automation is the most efficient standard of testing in your lab.

Endosafe EndoScan-V Version 6.2 and above perfectly align with 21 CFR Part 11 regulations, providing extensive and searchable audit trails for electronic records. This software enables users to effortlessly implement, integrate, and comply with data integrity guidelines on a global scale. The combination of the PRS 3 system and EndoScan-V software streamlines the process of generating accurate raw data analysis for reporting, tracking, and trending bacterial endotoxin testing.
Effortless Usage & Low Maintenance
With the PRS 3, there's no need to worry about replacing halogen bulbs or dealing with filter changes. Equipped with a long-lasting xenon flash lamp light source, this instrument ensures consistent performance throughout its lifetime. Moreover, the single monochromator filter covers a wide range of UV wavelengths, from 200 nm to 999 nm, enhancing sample processing efficiency and minimizing downtime.
Microplate Reader Instruments & Support
We are committed to providing clients with a simple upgrade process from the BioTek ELx808 Microplate Reader. A full equivalency study has been completed between ELx808 and PRS 3 for bacterial endotoxin testing using LAL and rCR reagents. Our technical support team qualified the instrument for compatibility with EndoScan-V software for bacterial endotoxin testing using LAL and rCR reagents. This service provides a smooth transition for replacing a BioTek microplate reader instrument for BET testing. Our onsite annual qualification of the instrument and software provides the assurance that it is operating correctly and fulfills the recommended preventative maintenance. Agilent Technologies has discontinued the BioTek Incubating Microplate Reader Model ELx808. As we continue to partner with Agilent Technologies, they have guaranteed service support of the ELx808 through January 2029.

BioTek® Plate Readers

We are able to provide an exceptional level of support for BioTek® endotoxin testing equipment due to our partnership with BioTek®. In addition to selling the BioTek® ELX808IU™ reader, our technical support department qualifies the instrument for compatibility with Endoscan-V™ software and the LAL test. Our onsite annual qualification of the instrument and software provides the assurance that it is operating correctly and fulfills the preventative maintenance requirements recommended by Charles River.

Endosafe EndoScan-V

Your endotoxin detection platform requires testing software that generates accurate raw data analysis for reporting, tracking, and trending. Accurate and timely results are critical to ensuring your laboratory and manufacturing processes stay in a state of constant control. EndoScan-V is a validated endotoxin detection and measuring software used to generate and report quantitative LAL test data.
