Application

Used for standardization and validation of particle size analyzers.
Also used:
  • to produce a monolayer assembly of colloidal particles for optical microscopy study[1]
  • as a model compound for comparison in uptake inhibition assay using A. castellanii trophozoites[2]

Features and Benefits

  • suitable for routine instrument calibration checking, testing and corrections
  • particle size traceable to Community Bureau of Reference (BCR) standards
  • available in 5 mL pack size as a neat sample

General description

Ideal for profiling the particle size distribution (PSD) of a particle system.
The particle size of 10 μm is characterized using Coulter multisizer III.

Cells in vitro usually require a solid scaffold to attach and form two-dimensional monolayer structures. To obtain a substrate-free cell monolayer, long culture time and specific detaching procedures are required. In this study, a thin-film-flow-induced strategy is reported to overcome

Questions

  1. Hello, what is the density of the particles? Also, how many particles are in a 5mL unit size such as this one? Kind regards, Stefano

    1 answer
    1. The density of these particles is 1.51 g/mL. The density of the prepared suspension is lot specific and reported in the product Certificate of Analysis. A review of recent lots indicates a density of approximately 1.05 g/mL The number of beads per mL is approximately 8.9x10E07/mL.
