Clemex Powder Disperser

Product catalog summary

Overview: The document introduces the Clemex Powder Disperser, a device designed to improve the observation and differentiation of dry powder particles on glass slides for image analysis using optical microscopy. Unlike traditional dispersers that use fluidized beds or high-pressure aerosols, this device employs a vacuum system to prevent particle damage and ensure accurate analysis.

Key Features:

Perfect Dispersion: Ensures particles are evenly distributed for analysis.
Reliability and Repeatability: Provides consistent results that can be validated.
Computer Controlled: Offers pre-defined settings for various particle types, enhancing ease of use.
Vacuum System: Prevents contamination from the surrounding environment.
No Particle Damage: Maintains the integrity of particles during dispersion.
Easy Cleaning: Simplifies maintenance of the device.

Performance Comparison:

Not Dispersed: Approximately 200 particles per field with a 40% count standard deviation. Average diameter is 40.47 microns, with the largest particle measuring 1014 microns.
Dispersed: Approximately 500 particles per field with a 10% count standard deviation. Average diameter is reduced to 29.73 microns, with the largest particle measuring 222 microns.

Additional Information: The document notes that some images may not represent the exact product and lists various trademarks of Clemex Technologies Inc. The document was printed in Canada in June 2010.

No more agglomeration of dry powder > Perfect dispersion > Reliable and repeatable > Computer controlled > Pre-defined settings for various particle types > Vacuum system avoids surrounding contamination The new Clemex Powder Disperser is a dry, freeflowing powder disperser used to “uncluster” particles so that they might be easily observed and differentiated on glass slides for Image Analysis by optical Microscopy. While most dispersers use fluidized beds or high-pressure aerosol, the Clemex Powder Disperser uses vacuum, insuring that no particle is damaged or changed by the disperser’s environment....
