The United States Pharmacopeia (USP) and others, such as EP, JP, and ChP, have developed test techniques to ensure that particle counts are kept to a minimum in intravenous injections (parenteral ...

In reliability engineering, few indicators are as consistently revealing as the particles that infiltrate a lubrication system. Long before vibration, temperature, or performance changes become ...

Particle measurements in ultra-pure water (UPW) systems can take a long time to return to a stable baseline after normal operations are interrupted by an event such as maintenance shutdowns. A ...

In the pharmaceutical industry, cleanrooms are categorized based on the level of airborne particle concentration necessary to meet the cleanliness standards required for the specific manufacturing ...

Automated Particle Counters (APCs) calibrated with Medium Test Dust (MTD) have historically set the benchmark for fuel and lubrication cleanliness testing. This calibration method is based on ISO ...

The latest instruments could be provided by a new vendor or the existing manufacturer. It is common for new models to be sourced due to product obsolescence or enhanced specifications, even when the ...

Optical particle counters (equipment here from Pacific Scientific), now with ISO standard calibrations, determine the condition of hydraulic oils used in injection machines and ensure comparability of ...
