Frequently asked questions
- What is GelTech Labs' primary product offering?
- GelTech Labs develops Carousel, an automated hydrogel testing and characterization platform that eliminates manual bottlenecks by fully automating 100-hour workflows. The instrument can test six hydrogels simultaneously and performs 24/7 testing with controlled incubation chambers throughout the process.
- What are the key performance benefits of GelTech's automation platform?
- The platform delivers 10-fold cost reduction compared to manual testing, enables one instrument to perform seven times more tests per week than a human operator, and increases testing repeatability by five-fold by maintaining samples in controlled conditions without manual intervention between measurements.
- Which industries and applications does GelTech serve?
- GelTech serves pharmaceutical, cosmetic, biomedical, agricultural, food, and environmental sectors. Applications include measuring water uptake and absorption in skincare products, tracking capsule degradation and release profiles, and characterizing biodegradable materials under simulated use conditions including body temperature and pH variations.
- What testing capabilities does the Carousel instrument provide?
- Carousel automates swelling and degradation testing with real-time monitoring of capsule expansion and breakdown. It includes auto-sampling functionality that can transfer released materials to separate well plates, enabling comprehensive characterization of hydrogel performance under controlled incubation conditions.
