The Automatic Sampler for UV Spectroscopy Toxicity Detection: Based on the Perspective of Binding Information with the Carrier Protein

Studies have shown that high toxicity at all stages of drug development is a major limiting factor in getting a new drug to market. At present, a number of toxicity assay methods have been published in the literature. Most of them rely mainly on the UV spectrometer and manual injection. However, the manual injection has low accuracy of detection results, long detection time, complicated operation, cross-contamination, and inadequate safety factor. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an automatic sampler that is used in combination with a platform for predicting drug toxicity based on carrier protein binding information and an ultraviolet spectrophotometer. The automatic sampler for UV spectroscopy toxicity detection uses the quartz cell gripper to clamp the quartz cell and realizes the precise automatic sample injection function through the position sensor. Through the movement simulation, the whole moving process is smooth and without interference, and the movement position of the quartz cell is accurate. The research and development of the automatic sampler for UV spectroscopy toxicity detection will significantly promote the precise detection of toxicity in the early stage of drug development. The development of UV spectral toxicity detection autosampler will provide hardware support for the precise detection of toxicity in the early stage of drug development. At the same time, it will significantly shorten the drug R&D process and save a lot of R&D expenses for drug R&D.
