TUSTIN, Calif. – Symbion Systems, Inc., a leader in providing analytical instrument control, analysis, and connectivity software, today announced the integration of its Symbion-DX and RX software with CAMO Sofware’s Unscrambler Technology. The new product facilitates the integration of chemometric calibrations developed using CAMO’s The Unscrambler® multivariate analysis program into methods developed using Symbion-DX and RX Process Analytical Technology (PAT) software. The combination of the Symbion and CAMO Software products provides a comprehensive capability for process analytical methods development and on-line deployment.

Pharmaceutical industries have struggled for a long time with the real-time data acquisition of in-line, at-line, on-line and off-line data. Alignment of all the data in a consistent and structured way is important in order to predict product quality based on Multivariate Models. Integration of Symbion solutions with the Unscrambler Technology provides users all of the predictive and diagnostic tools found in The Unscrambler®, configured in a way that allows real time quality control.

Symbion-DX and RX provides standardized platforms for controlling a wide range of spectrometers and other analytical instruments. In addition, they feature extensive data manipulation and application development capabilities as well as the ability to communicate with numerous third party programs and enterprise-wide data systems. In short, the Symbion programs streamline the development of comprehensive analytical methods encompassing instrument and sample system control, data analysis, process trending, database archiving, and reporting to enterprise-wide data systems. Each method is permanently stored in the Symbion database and is under full version control, compliant with 21 CFR Pat 11. Once validated, a method can be recalled from the database and downloaded for deployment at multiple instrumentation locations.

DR. W. Michael Doyle, CEO of Symbion commented, “We believe that the integration of the CAMO and Symbion products will be significant in process analytical technology (PAT), especially for pharmaceutical & bio-pharmaceutical manufacturers. The Unscrambler® is already used by many major pharmaceutical firms. The ability to run The Unscrambler® models directly within Symbion scripts will accelerate the development and on-line deployment of comprehensive locked-down process analytical methods.”

The Unscrambler® from CAMO Software is a comprehensive Multivariate Analysis and Experimental Design software solution, equipped with powerful methods. . The Unscrambler Predictor is designed to make models generated off-line using The Unscrambler®, more widely accessible to third party instruments and control systems.

“Having closely worked with Symbion over the past year, we are very excited and happy to now, see The Unscrambler® technology compatible with Symbion systems. This will help us reach and be available to a larger customer base seeking to implement Process Analytical Technology. This offers an additional platform choice to our larger trusted customer base globally,” explains Saby Goswami, President, CAMO Software Inc.”CAMO is on the verge of releasing its New Generation (GenX) suite of products, based on the proven The Unscrambler® Technology. We would like to make it a preferred platform by being flexible, available and affordable to our direct customers and by collaborating with key value added partners like Symbion to provide an end-to-end solution. It’s great to note that we have achieved yet another milestone in this direction,” adds Saby.
