The particles within a powder sample are present in a wide variety of sizes, shapes and compositions; with the requirements on their analysis and characterization being just as diverse. Analysis of ...

Modern air jet milling can be used to investigate the feasibility of micronization as a solubilization approach in formulation development. Advances in micronization for handling batch sizes of less ...

Pollutant particles with a smaller diameter, density, and flow rate can enter the deep lung, but large particles with a low density may also enter the deep airways, according to a study. Researchers ...

The ongoing wildfires in the western US have spewed so much smoke that they’ve darkened the skylines of cities as far away as New York and Washington, DC. For those living near the fires, the health ...

The author examines dry dispersion and outlines the related analytical method development. Across the pharmaceutical industry, laser-diffraction technology is well established for particle-size ...

Dispersions of polymer particles in a liquid phase (latexes) have many important applications in coatings technology, medical imaging, and cell biology. A team of researchers has now developed a ...

Particles are contained in several types of materials. They are found in granules and powders like pharmaceutical ingredients, cement, and pigments. Particles are present in slurries, emulsions, and ...

Particle size analysis gives information on the size distribution of particles. This can be used to calculate different properties of a particle and how they will act under certain conditions. This ...

Proteins consisting of amino acids are key macromolecules that play essential roles in all kinds of activities in living organisms. In particular, amino acids are bound by peptide bonds to create ...
