Malvern shows chemical imaging system at
AAPS
An exciting new analytical approach, chemical imaging enables the identification and spatial localisation of chemical species in a sample, producing a 'chemical map'
Malvern Instruments's recent acquisition of Spectral Dimensions has added powerful NIR (near infrared) chemical imaging systems to the Malvern portfolio The NIR-CI 2450 from this range will be on show at the 2006 AAPS Annual Meeting and Exposition (29 Oct - 2 Nov 06; San Antonio, TX, USA)

Melbourn Scientific has become the first CRO in the UK to routinely use the Malvern Instruments Spraytec particle size analyser to support the development of inhaler, nebuliser and nasal spray systems
The NIR-CI 2450, which incorporates the latest technology for chemical imaging, will be displayed alongside systems from Malvern's extensive range of instruments and technologies for materials characterisation.
On the booth will be the laser diffraction-based Spraytec and Mastersizer 2000 particle size analysers, the Morphologi G2 high sensitivity particle image analyser for shape and size measurement, the Zetasizer Nano for characterizing nano-sized particles and molecules in solution, and the Gemini HRnano rheometer.
An exciting new analytical approach, chemical imaging enables the identification and spatial localisation of chemical species in a sample, producing a 'chemical map'.
By combining traditional near infrared spectroscopy with microscopic and macroscopic imaging, a single rapid measurement enables analysts to obtain quantitative spatial and spectral information with unprecedented ease.
In the pharmaceutical industry chemical imaging of solid dosage forms is used increasingly to determine: sample content uniformity; domain size characteristics; distribution of components (blending); polymorph distribution; moisture content; location of contaminants; coating and layer thickness.
