Application: | Used for regular calibration and checking of particle size instruments. Also used: • to study transport properties of microscopic particles via heterogeneous media • as a test standard to validate denoising method used in optical diffraction tomography • in accelerated annealing experiments involving colloidal silica monolayers • to evaluate the measurement accuracy of color-coded LED microscopy (cLEDscope) technique • as a calibration standard in optical trapping system to measure surface mechanical properties |
Features and Benefits: | • suitable for routine instrument calibration monitoring, 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: | Silicon dioxide based microparticles are ideal to determine particle size distribution (PSD) profile of test samples. The particle diameter of 5 μm is measured using Coulter Multisizer. |
