Product news

Copley Scientific has added a number of new features to the company’s Critical Flow Controller TPK 2000, extending its capability and improving performance. The TPK 2000 will be exhibited at APS Inhalation 2009, which takes place from 23 to 25 March at the University of Nottingham (UK).

Recognised as an industry standard, the TPK 2000 controls and documents all the critical parameters associated with dose uniformity and aerodynamic particle size measurement for dry powder inhaler (DPI) testing. It simplifies test set-up in accordance with US and European Pharmacopoeia specifications for flow rate, total air volume and flow stability during testing.

Continued development of the TPK 2000 has further extended its capabilities: a separate temperature/humidity module improves temperature accuracy and stability, and allows the user to choose the measurement location; a direct RS232 serial port broadens options for remote control and integration into automated systems; and a new USB port widens the choice of printer.

Particle CharacterizationParticle characterization instruments are used to determine particle size distribution, shape, surface area, zeta potential, density and porosity of particles and materials. Multiple tecchniques are available for determining particle size, shape and count including dynamic light scattering (DLS), laser diffraction, electrozone (Coulter technique), imaging particle analysis and single particle optical sensing. Determine the density of your material with a gas pycnometer or examine its surface area and porosity with gas adsorption analyzers and mercury porosimeters. Find the best particle characterization instruments in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.
