Microparticle analysis: methods and uses in the pharmaceutical industry

Pharmaceutical Technology

Particle analysis on a micro-scale is a significant topic in several fields of application. Particle size is monitored in quality control as well as the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). Microparticles can be present as a contamination of products such as pharmaceuticals and electronics, or as an air pollutant.
