Successful Particle Size Analysis of Dry Powders
ثبت نشده
چکیده
A correctly set up dry powder measurement using a laser diffraction particle size analyser is much easier to perform than measurement of wet suspensions. However, incorrect measurement set-up can lead to errors and inconsistencies. This article examines the key steps achieving successful dry to powder measurement. Issues examined include powder flowability and sampling, air pressure and sample dispersion, feed rate and the importance of Standard Operating Procedures.

Comparison of particle sizing techniques in the case of inhalation dry powders.
The objectives of this work were (i) to validate electrical zone sensing and laser diffraction for the analysis of primary particle size in the case of inhalation dry powders and (ii) to study the influence of the aggregation state of the powder on the sizing techniques. Free-flowing dry powders were prepared by spray-drying with a combination of albumin, lactose, and dipalmitoylphosphatidylcho...
متن کاملEffect of Particulate Properties of Inhaled Dry Powder Formulation on Bioavailability, Dissolution Rate of Drug Particles and Rate of Drug Removal from the Body
Introduction: The use of pulmonary drug delivery as a non-invasive drug delivery system for the systemic treatment of diseases as well as the topical treatment of respiratory diseases is increasing. Among the various inhaled formulations, inhaled dry powders show advantages over the other forms of inhaled medicines due to high stability, bioavailability and ease of use. The effect of particle p...
متن کاملRapid characterisation of the inherent dispersibility of respirable powders using dry dispersion laser diffraction
Understanding and controlling powder de-agglomeration is of great importance in the development of dry powder inhaler (DPI) products. Dry dispersion laser diffraction measures particle size readily under controlled dispersing conditions, but has not been exploited fully to characterise inherent powder dispersibility. The aim of the study was to utilise particle size-dispersing pressure titratio...
