The size distribution of emulsion droplets effects the stability, performance, and rheological behavior of the dispersion. Multiple measurements are required to optimize the formulation through to ...

If you have ever shaken a salad dressing bottle mixed with oil and vinegar, you have temporarily created an emulsion. However, that state is temporary, and the two components soon separate. But, what ...

Light obscuration to measure the large tails >5 μm DLS, or laser diffraction, to measure the mean and standard deviation of the distribution The AccuSizer ® is the preferred technique to measure the ...

The “tail” of a particle size distribution references the particles that are several standard deviations removed from the mean of the standard Gaussian distribution. Figure 1 demonstrates the ...

The United States Pharmacopeia (USP) and others, such as EP, JP, and ChP, have developed test techniques to ensure that particle counts are kept to a minimum in intravenous injections (parenteral ...

Single-particle optical sensing (SPOS) was originally developed for the field of particulate contamination analysis. Particles in a liquid suspension flow through a small "photozone", a narrow, ...

Bioengineers and mathematicians have invented the first-ever 'armored' emulsions. The armor comes in the form of tiny soft U-shaped cups, about a half-millimeter in length. With a hydrophobic ...
