Microscopy
Analyzing particle morphology, size, shape & structure
Microscopy analysis
Microscopy is an essential technique for analyzing particle morphology, size, and shape in pharmaceutical materials.
At Particle Analytical, we use the Malvern Panalytical Morphology G3 – an advanced optical system designed for automatic detailed particle characterization.
It provides critical insights into particle behavior and performance, supporting both formulation development and quality control.
The image analysis software is compliant to USP <1776> Image analysis of pharmaceutical systems, giving all descriptor of the powder sample studied.
How Particle Analytical can assist with Microscopy analysis
-
Particle Morphology Analysis
Assesses particle shape and surface characteristics, which influence flowability, compressibility, and processability in formulations. -
