Dissolution: refers to the rate and extent to which a drug is dissolved from a solid preparation such as a tablet in a predetermined solvent. Dissolution is an important indicator of tablet quality control, and poorly soluble drugs should generally be tested for dissolution. For formulations that check for dissolution, the time limit for disintegration is not checked.
The dissolution tester consists of a cabinet, control system, electrical system, water bath system, transmission system, sensors, paddle components, and basket components.
