If you’re onboarding a new analyst into your OINDP testing team, this is a great starting point.

It’s short, clear, and focused on terminology that comes up regularly in inhaler testing conversations.

Automation in OINDP testing isn’t just about how much you automate; it’s about where and how effectively it’s applied.

In the latest Inhalation Technology supplement from PMPS, our Head of Business Development, Paul Martin, explores practical strategies for optimising OINDP workflows, focusing on reducing variability, improving data integrity, and supporting efficient laboratory operations.

Key topics include:
• The impact of manual actuation on APSD and DDU data
• How targeted automation improves consistency and analyst efficiency
• The role of integrated data handling in supporting ALCOA++ principles
• Why connected, scalable systems are key to long-term success

The takeaway? Automation delivers the greatest value when it’s aligned with real laboratory workflows, not just implemented for its own sake.

🫁Across workshops, posters and conversations at RDD 2026, one theme was clear: inhaled drug delivery continues to evolve, and testing strategies are evolving with it.

From inhaled dissolution and realistic APSD to low-GWP propellant reformulation and automation, this year’s discussions highlighted an industry balancing scientific innovation with the need for robust, transferable data.

In our latest blog, we share our key takeaways from RDD 2026 and explore what these themes could mean for the future of OINDP development and testing.

80 years. Three generations. One clear focus.

Over the last eight decades, pharmaceutical and inhaler testing have evolved significantly. Regulatory requirements have become more rigorous, laboratory workflows more connected, and the importance of reliable, reproducible data has never been greater.

📖 In our latest blog, “Why 80 Matters”, we reflect on what 80 years of supporting pharmaceutical testing has taught us. From the importance of intelligent design and data integrity, to the value of expert support and practical solutions that help laboratories work with confidence.

While the industry has evolved significantly over the years, our focus remains the same: Helping Scientists Improve People’s Lives.

📍 Attending RDD 2026?

Join us for a workshop exploring one of the key challenges in inhaled drug development: dissolution testing.

Advancing Dissolution Testing for Inhaled Drug Products
🗓 Tues 12 May 2026
🕑 From 2:00pm
📍 Sitgreaves Suite

With no standardised approach currently in place, measuring dissolution for inhaled products remains a complex and evolving area. This session will explore the scientific and regulatory landscape, the limitations of existing methodologies, and how the industry is beginning to address these challenges.

We’ll also take a practical look at how a purpose-designed approach, demonstrated using the Inhaled Dissolution Apparatus (IDA), can deliver consistent, high quality and reproducible data.

If this is an area relevant to your work, we’d be pleased to see you there.

💡Struggling with variability in MDI testing?

Even small differences in actuation technique can distort delivered dose and APSD data, compromising result accuracy.

Our latest ONdrugDelivery Magazine article presents experimental data showing how automated actuation reduces variability and improves dose consistency compared to manual methods.

If you’re developing or testing MDIs, this has clear implications for data quality and method robustness.

⚖️Comparing formulations often means repeating the same disintegration test, one run at a time.

⏱️This can slow down development and make side-by-side evaluation more difficult, particularly when working with multiple samples.

✅The DTG 200i-IS supports parallel disintegration testing through independent control of each test station, enabling more efficient comparison within a single workflow.

🔍Used across R&D and QC, it provides a practical approach to improving testing efficiency while maintaining control of key parameters.

Are you making the right decisions early in your OINDP testing strategy, or fixing problems later?

Setting up a robust approach isn’t just about following guidelines; it’s about making informed choices that stand up in real-world application.

This October, Copley Scientific is teaming up with A&M STABTEST for a focused, two-day workshop designed to tackle the real challenges scientists face in OINDP development.

You’ll gain practical insight into:
➡️Lab setup decisions
➡️Method development strategies
➡️Advanced analytical approaches
➡️Applying best practice in real lab environments

Designed for scientists looking for clearer direction and greater confidence in their data.

📢 Registration opens soon. More details coming shortly.
