General description

The USP Performance Verification Test (PVT) is an essential aspect of the General Chapter <711> Dissolution that assesses the comprehensive performance of Dissolution Apparatus 1 (basket) and Dissolution Apparatus 2 (paddle). DPVS - Prednisone Tablets is specially engineered by USP to use as a reference standard for PVT of apparatus used in dissolution testing for the following reasons:

  • High stability and ease of use
  • High sensitivity to operational and mechanical variables of instrument setup
  • Low sensitivity to media degassing
  • Low tablet-to-tablet variability
These features help enable you to identify any differences from the ideal dissolution instrument setup so you can have confidence in your dissolution testing results.
