Malvern Archimedes Particle Metrology plus PC

• Characterisation of protein aggregates and other nanoparticles in biopharmaceutical formulations.
• Analysis of colloidal stability and aggregation in various suspensions and emulsions.
• Quality control for fine chemical and material science applications requiring precise particle data.
• Research and development in nanotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and advanced materials.

Measurement Principle

Typically uses Resonant Mass Measurement (RMM) technology for high-resolution particle analysis.

Particle Size Range

For this class of equipment, it commonly measures particles from approximately 50 nm to 5 µm.

Sample Volume

Typically requires small sample volumes, often in the microlitre range.

Throughput

Analysis time per sample is generally in the order of minutes, depending on the measurement parameters.

Power Supply

Commonly operates on standard laboratory power, typically 230V, 50Hz (UK mains) for the main unit and PC.

Footprint

The main unit and accompanying PC are designed for benchtop use, requiring a modest laboratory bench space.
