General description

Designed to analyze the particle size distribution (PSD) profile of a particle system.
The particle size of 10 μm is standardized using Coulter multisizer III.

Application

Used to develop, calibrate, qualify and monitor particle size equipment and particle counters.
Also used:
  • as a calibration standard to show that microfluidic device can detect particles and cells of different sizes
  • to prepare microparticle-based adjuvants for application in fish vaccines
  • in coagulation studies to prove the pro-coagulant activity of synthetic microparticles

Features and Benefits

  • suitable for routine instrument calibration checking, testing and corrections
  • particle size traceable to Community Bureau of Reference (BCR) standards
  • available in 5 mL pack size as a neat sample

Biomaterials are frequently evaluated for pro-coagulant activity but usually in the presence of microparticles (MPs), cell-derived vesicles in blood plasma whose phospholipid surfaces allow coagulation factors to set up as functional assemblies. We tested the hypothesis that synthetic anionic surfaces
