SOTAX MPS – Media Preparation Station for Dissolution Systems (Refurbished)

The SOTAX MPS Media Preparation Station is a high-performance, automated system designed to streamline media preparation for dissolution testing. By integrating heating, vacuum or spray degassing, filtering, mixing, and accurate dispensing into a single unit, the MPS eliminates manual handling steps and ensures consistent, reproducible media quality for regulated pharmaceutical workflows.

Capable of preparing media volumes quickly and with tight temperature control, the MPS improves laboratory throughput while ensuring full compliance with USP/EP dissolution requirements. It is designed for seamless use with SOTAX dissolution baths (AT series) or other dissolution systems.
