Precise analytical measurements are required on a daily basis in academic research and scientific laboratories across various fields, such as pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. These measurements include pH, weight, conductivity, and elemental analysis. Such measurements rely on specific analytical equipment and instruments, which must be reliable, cost-effective, durable and flexible. Particle analyzers are devices used to measure the size and characteristics of particles in a sample. Particle analysis is employed to study the size, shape and distribution of particles within materials, thereby providing a deeper understanding of their physical properties and behavioural characteristics, which is of paramount importance across numerous industrial and research sectors. Particle size can influence the physical and chemical properties of particulate materials, and is an important indicator of quality and performance. It also determines a material's flowability and compaction properties. Particle size analysis is a key technique for determining particle size distribution. In the pharmaceutical industry, for example, the particle size of active ingredients affects characteristics such as content uniformity, dissolution and absorption rates. Particle size analysis plays a crucial role in many fields, including nanotechnology, proteins, polymers, cosmetics, fertilizers, soils, and abrasives. This technique can be used to calculate the average particle size and polydispersity index. Two methods are commonly used for particle size analysis: microscopy and dynamic light scattering. Microscopy has the advantage of providing morphological data on nanoparticles, as well as the size of individual particles. However, determining the size distribution of nanoparticles using this method is difficult. Dynamic light scattering, on the other hand, provides the average hydrodynamic size of nanoparticles and their size distribution within the corresponding nanofluid sample. STEMart's newly launched range of particle analyzers offers the necessary sensitivity and precision to meet customers' needs for accurate and reliable particle analysis, ensuring product quality, stability and compliance in highly sensitive environments. For example, the STEM-AIAE-0543-LGZ Particle Analyzer uses digital imaging technology to measure the size and shape of microscopic particles in fluid media. Image-based particle analysis enables the comprehensive characterization of subvisible particles, API aggregates, and impurities in biopharmaceuticals, as well as mammalian cells, microplankton, emulsions, and advanced materials. In addition, STEMart continues to offer a diverse range of instrumentation, including particle counters, particle metrology systems, and laser light scattering systems. This ensures that cutting-edge technology remains accessible to laboratories of all sizes and budget requirements.
