We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Particle Counter",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Laboratorytalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Handheld particle counter displays three channels from
Adams Instruments, which we summarised at the time by saying "Adams Instruments, the newest contender in the contamination control monitoring industry, has announced the immediate availability of its newest product, the handheld particle counter
model 3013".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Sparkling range of water monitors at IWWE 2007 from
Analytical Technology: "Analytical Technology (ATi) will be exhibiting its range of water monitors on stand B68 at Irish Water Waste and Environment (IWWE), 7-8 March 2007, RDS, Dublin".
In January 2007, we covered the news from Melbourn Scientific
concerning its Stability testing services
- take a look at Melbourn increases parenteral testing capacity
which says: "Melbourn Scientific is one of the first UK contract laboratories to invest in a light obscuration particle counter, enabling it to size and accurately count sub-visible particles in liquid samples".
Take a look also at the news release from Lighthouse Worldwide Solutions, Perfect tool for multiple batch sampling,
as well as Advancing portable particle counting technology from Lighthouse Worldwide Solutions,
and Standards for light obscuration particle counters from Brookhaven Instruments (UK).
