The application note discusses how PerkinElmer's Pyris STA 9 Simultaneous Thermal Analyzer (STA) enhances productivity in pharmaceutical laboratories by conducting Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) simultaneously. This dual analysis capability is particularly valuable during the early drug discovery phase, where quick thermal analysis of small sample quantities is crucial. The app note showcases the analysis of three pharmaceutical compounds, demonstrating the STA’s ability to provide detailed thermal behavior insights quickly. The conclusion highlights the Pyris STA 9’s efficiency, accuracy, and its potential for high-throughput, unattended sample analysis, making it an ideal tool for fast-paced pharmaceutical research environments.
