New software speeds validation of automated liquid handling processes
Eppendorf’s epMotion® GxP solution includes an automated pipetting system, epBlue™ GxP software and certificates, plus dedicated certification and validation services (like IQ/OQ and user trainings). Automation increases the speed and accuracy of liquid handling and now the new epMotion GxP cuts the time required to validate these processes and comply to European and US government requirements.

For biomedical and pharmaceutical companies, as well as related contract research organisations working in a regulated environment, validating and qualifying their pipetting processes according to the requirements of 21 CFR parts 11, 58, 211 and 820, GLP, GMP and GCP can be very time-consuming and labor-intensive. By developing epBlue GxP in accordance with GAMP® 5, Eppendorf has taken care of the major part of the required system validation and qualification, leaving users more time to focus on validating their application.

The new software module provides a comprehensive range of powerful features, such as multi-level access control which requires a valid user ID and password in order to create or run an application or access any electronic record. The epBlue GxP system enables creation of digitally signed PDF documents and automatically generates and protects an audit trail comprising time-stamped records of all user activities. Exportable digital certificates can easily be checked on external computers. Optional support for ID tracking is also available for use with barcode-labelled labware or ID lists.

According to Carsten Buhlmann, PhD, International Product Manager Automated Liquid Handling, Eppendorf AG, ‘The new epMotion GxP solution is a complete package that consists of the epMotion automated pipetting hardware, as well as software, services and certificates. It was developed according to the GAMP 5 standard and I am convinced that its high quality and rich features will help our pharmaceutical customers to significantly shorten the timeline of their process validation and qualification.’

Eppendorf is a biotech company which develops, produces and distributes systems for use in all spheres of life science. The company's broad range of high quality products and systems is used by researchers worldwide to efficiently carry out their work.
The product range includes pipettes, dispensers and centrifuges as well as consumables such as micro test tubes and pipette tips. In addition to this, Eppendorf provides instruments and systems for automated liquid handling. Even a complete range of devices for DNA amplification for standard PCR or real-time PCR as well as systems for cell manipulation and electroporation are available. New Brunswick Scientific, Edison, USA, stands for expertise and top products within the Eppendorf Group in the field of cell growth, detection and storage.
Eppendorf products are designed for academic and commercial research facilities, but also for industrial companies in the field of biotechnology and in other sectors using biotech research processes. Innovative research approaches will call for miniature applications with an increased sample throughput for future diagnostics and therapy. This implies a trend towards automation and a level of reproducibility for which the company's high level of technology and expertise will be sought after on the market.
Eppendorf is represented in all important markets worldwide. Although the company is placing main emphasis on North America as the regional market, Asia has a high potential with dynamic rates of growth.
