Neutrally Buoyant Particles – What Are They, What Are They Used For, How to Use Them?
Suspension of microspheres in water enables the visualization and characterization of fluid flow and testing the capability of devices to withstand particulate matter in the fluid stream, ensuring that microspheres do not settle and do not float on the surface. Most of these polymer microspheres are at least moderately
FDA-Approved Microspheres
What makes a microsphere FDA-approved? In order to tell whether the microsphere can be used in cosmetics, food, or medical devices it is important to look at the raw materials that are incorporated into the microsphere during manufacturing process.? For example, unpigmented or clear polyethylene microspheres supplied by Cospheric in
Phosphorescent Microspheres – Long Afterglow Particles
Phosphorescent microspheres in particle sizes 10 to 600 microns are now available from Cospheric LLC. These phosphorescent particles are 90% spherical and appear to be off-white under ordinary daylight or regular room illumination.? However, when the lights are turned off these phosphorescent particles exhibit phosphorescent yellow-green after-glow. The spheres have
Microspheres in Medical Devices – MDDI Magazine
High-quality polymer microspheres are commercially available in a
wide variety of colors and with controlled fluorescence, opacity,
specific gravity, particle size distribution, and electrostatic charge,
presenting endless possibilities for use in developing and testing
medical devices. To select the right microsphere for the job, one must
rely on detailed knowledge
Density Marker Beads – Microspheres with Specific gravity of 1.065 and 1.075
In the biomedical industry researchers are sometimes looking for cells having targeted specific gravities. In order to locate these cells in test tubes it is useful to have colored marker beads which will show where the delineation between specific densities occurs. Two microsphere products having densities of 1.065
