Importance of particle size and morphology in pharmaceuticals
Particle size and morphology are critical parameters in the pharmaceutical industry that significantly influence the physical and chemical properties of drugs. These characteristics affect the solubility, dissolution rate, bioavailability, stability, and overall performance of pharmaceutical products. Accurate determination of particle size and morphology is essential for formulation development, quality control, and regulatory compliance.
Protheragen-ING Lab's determination methods
We employ several advanced methods for determining the particle size and morphology of pharmaceutical samples:
Laser Diffraction
This technique measures the scattering of laser light by particles in a sample. It provides a rapid and accurate determination of particle size distribution, suitable for a wide range of particle sizes.
Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS)
DLS measures the fluctuations in scattered light caused by the Brownian motion of particles in a suspension. It is ideal for analyzing submicron and nanoscale particles.
Microscopy Techniques
We employ advanced microscopy techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to examine particle morphology at high resolutions. This allows for detailed analysis of particle shape, surface characteristics, and aggregation tendencies.
Sieve Analysis
This method involves passing a sample through a series of sieves with different mesh sizes to determine the particle size distribution. It is suitable for larger particles.
Image Analysis
Advanced image analysis software can be used in conjunction with microscopy techniques to quantify particle size and shape parameters accurately.
