Oil based suppositories give unacceptable and unreproducible results utilising the standard 40 mesh stainless steel dissolution basket, since the suppository base has a tendency to block the filter mesh.
Palmieri designed a suppository basket that can be used on the Apparatus 1 (basket). The suppository basket is made of an inert plastic with the same dimensions as the standard basket, substituting 12 linear slots 1/8 inch (3.2mm) wide, to provide porosity of approximately 50%, roughly equivalent to that of a 10 mesh basket.
