“Optical methods for particle size and zeta potential determinations with an overview of acoustical techniques” will be the subject of a presentation in March 2010 by Fraser McNeil-Watson, manager of the Novel Measurement Group at Malvern Instruments at a meeting on the ‘Characterisation of sub-micron and nano-sized particles’. The one-day technical meeting, organised by the Particle Characterisation Interest Group of the Royal Society of Chemistry and The Joint Pharmaceutical Analysis Group, takes place on 17 March 2010 at the Royal Pharmaceutical Society in London (UK). The programme includes presentations on different methods available for submicron and nano-sized particle characterisation and will discuss method validation and checking, as well as exploring important aspects of sample preparation and dispersion.
