Measurement Techniques for Electrostatic Charged Microspheres
Co-founders of Cospheric, developed real-time reliable technique for measuring electrostatic charge on microspheres. The technique involves creating a monolayer of microspheres contained in microstructure with each sphere being separated from its neighbors. This technique allows precise measurement of electrostatic charge of a large quantity of microspheres without allowing sphere-sphere interactions.
Electrostatic-based DNA Microarray Offers Medical Diagnostics Capabilities
The uses for microspheres continue to grow, a recent article published by UC-Berkley shows how DNA sequencing can be achieved through the use of statically charged microspheres. The key breakthrough is that they have been able to achieve a visible result through using the electrostatic repulsion of the
Microspheres for Coatings Applications (Opaque Polyethylene)
Microspheres are well known in the coatings industry for their use as low-surface-area fillers that offer benefits in viscosity and density control, solids content, application and flow characteristics. Cospheric LLC, a Santa Barbara-based microtechnology company, recently launched a line of opaque polyethylene microspheres that act as a superior opacifying agent
Chitosan microspheres prepared by spray drying
Spray drying has been used in the production of fine powders from emulsions for many years, but it is not a process in which most people associate the production of microspheres. This journal article shows how the authors were able to produce highly spherical microspheres in the 1-10um range
Fluorescent Tracer Microspheres – Properties and Applications
Fluorescent microspheres are round spherical particles that emit bright colors when illuminated by UV light. Ability to emit intense color under UV (black light) illumination provides contrast and visibility of microspheres relative to background materials.
