Revolutionizing Extraction Precision with JetX™

A fully automated, high-throughput extraction workflow for reliable pharmaceutical sample preparation.

The extraction step is the most critical phase in pharmaceutical sample preparation. Achieving complete, consistent recovery, while preserving accuracy and traceability, is essential for reliable downstream analytics. The JetX™ Sample Preparation Platform from SOTAX is engineered to meet these requirements, replacing cumbersome manual glassware processes with a highly controlled automated workflow that reduces labor by 80%.

At the heart of the system is patented JetXtraction™ technology. By applying a high-velocity jet of media (at flow rates up to 650 mL/min) directly to the dosage form, JetX™ achieves rapid disintegration or focused erosion. This mechanical extraction is supported by integrated magnetic stirrers in the flow-through Media Reservoir, which create a vortex to ensure total homogeneity and thorough sample dispersion.

JetX™ manages every step with a focus on precision and repeatability. Instead of traditional volumetric markings, the system utilizes precise gravimetric filling powered by an integrated METTLER TOLEDO® weighing module. This ensures volumetric standards are met or exceeded by confirming every delivered volume via mass and density. This intelligent control significantly reduces the risk of incomplete recovery or operator-related inconsistencies, which account for over 50% of typical laboratory errors.

The platform integrates seamlessly into regulated environments through AutoDI™ (Data Integrity by Default). The system automatically logs "who did what, when, and where" in a secure SQL database, supporting full 21 CFR Part 11 compliance. Whether used in R&D as a development tool (SingleFlow) or in high-throughput QC environments (MultiFlow), JetX™ allows laboratories to process samples 4x faster than manual methods while leaving established U/HPLC analytical methods unchanged.

With its advanced extraction capabilities and automated self-cleaning, JetX™ sets a new benchmark for automated sample preparation, delivering accuracy, throughput, and reliability in one unified system.
