Abstract: The technology includes an example method for parsing data to determine corollary objects and adapt attributes of the corollary objects using the data. In some implementations, the method may include receiving one or more images, performing text recognition to determine recognized text in the one or more images, and determining data cells containing information associated with a first item. The method may then classify one or more of the determined data cells, and may identify key cells in the determined data cells based on the classification of the one or more determined data cells. Correlations between information contained in the key cells and a second item, the second item including an interchangeable item to the first item may be determined, and the method may adjust attributes associated with the second item based on defined parameters and the recognized text.

Abstract: There is disclosed a method and apparatus for developing and controlling pharmaceutical granulations from a tabletting characteristics standpoint, involving instrumenting a tablet press to derive both the peak compression force and peak ejection force information for each tabletting event in convenient digital form. The thusly derived compression and ejection force information is automatically scaled to desired units of force and utilized in compression and ejection profiles and in the calculation of the average and standard deviations for both compression and ejection in the pursuit of optimization of the tabletted granulation regarding such tabletting characteristics as compressibility, lubricity, relative flow, compression failure point, and tendency of the formed tablets to adhere to the tablet press punches.

Abstract: There is disclosed instrumentation for use in connection with one or more tablet presses of various types, and in particular rotary tablet presses, for virtually any reasonable combination and number of such tablet presses. Tablet formation information, in particular compression and ejection force information, tablet capping information and information related to punch withdrawal is provided and processed by such instrumentation. This information is selectively applied to converting means which renders the selected information in a convenient data form for processing. Selection of the information may be made for example based on the need or desire to monitor a particular tablet press, tablet press station and/or individual tablet die/punch set combination.

Tablet formation information, in particular compression and ejection force information, tablet capping information and force information related to the time of occurrence of punch withdrawal is provided and processed by such instrumentation. This information is selectively applied to converting means which renders the selected information in a convenient data form for processing. Selection of the information may be made for example based on the need or desire to monitor a particular tablet press, tablet press station and/or individual tablet die/punch set combination.

Abstract: There is disclosed a method and apparatus for standardizing, in terms of a pre-established range of acceptable in vitro release and/or in vivo response, production of tabletted formulations which have a dependency on tablet hardness, through control of the maximum tabletting compression force developed by the tablet press employed, and for providing an individual momentary as well as permanent readout in digital form of the maximum compression force developed for each tabletting event. One or more tablets are compressed from a particular batch of formulation at selected different press compression force settings. These tablets are processed to derive data regarding in vitro release and/or in vivo response with a determination of an optimum value being made directly from or by interpolation of the resulting data. This optimum value is correlated to a press setting and the press is then set thereat for the tabletting of the bulk of the batch of formulation.
