- Pharmaceutical and industrial application
Webinar: Finding the Optimal Particle Size Analyzer for your Application
Please join us for our web-based seminar (or Webinar) Thursday, July 22nd at 2 PM Eastern (11:00 AM Pacific) on Selecting a Particle Size Analyzer. This presentation will describe a process that could be used to select the best technique and model for given particle characterization requirements and applications.
The presenter will be Mark Bumiller.
Topics covered include:
- Understanding the requirement
- Technique selection
- Model selection
The HORIBA Guidebook on Particle Size Analysis
Particle size analysis and characterization (shape, zeta potential) is seldom learned within the university system so most customers come to this technology without an academic background in the field. The new HORIBA Guidebook to Particle Size Analysis provides a concise introduction to particle characterization and the HORIBA products used for these measurements.
Topics covered in this booklet include:
- Why particle size is important
- Understanding and interpreting distributions
- Setting specifications
- Techniques: laser diffraction, DLS, acoustics, image analysis
- Selecting a particle size analyzer

Case Study: Effect of pH and Energy on Sample Dispersion
Praseodymium is a soft, silvery, malleable and ductile metal in the lanthanide group. Based in the information known about this sample experiments were designed to investigate how reported particle size changed as a function of pH, pump speed, ultrasound. This case study illustrates the importance of using a structured approach to particle size method development. All measurements were made on the HORIBA LA-950 particle size distribution analyzer.

FORENSICS
HORIBA offers a wide range of analytical technologies beyond particle characterization. Many of our customers are also interested in some of these other techniques.
One such technology is HORIBA forensics light sources including the CrimeScope, Mini-CrimeScope, HandScope Halogen and HandScope Xenon from the Forensics Division.
Over the past 6 years SPEX Forensics has become the worldwide leader in FLS with the purchase of 50 units by the National Japanese police, 140 units by the FBI, 25 units by the French Gendarmerie, and more recently 107 units by the Italian Carabinieri. There are more than 1000 units in use worldwide by police forces ranging from small city police departments to county, state and special crime scene forces to national and federal police agencies.
