Getting Ready To Purchase A New Mixer? Tips On How To Justify The Capital Expenditure
By Charles Ross & Son Company
Purchase of new mixing equipment is typically not a hasty event. Unless an unexpected challenge abruptly hit your operations such as a sudden failure of an existing mixer or a right-now sales opportunity demanding an unprecedented spike in production, process engineers generally have time to prepare for what could be a serious expenditure.

The Advantages Of Using An Electronically Commutated Motor (ECM) In Biosafety Cabinets
By Jim Hunter and Mike Rouse, Labconco Corporation
The modern Class II Biosafety Cabinet (BSC) was developed in the early 1960s as a result of the increased availability of High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filter technology. At the time, the motor of choice to drive the cabinet's blower was the Permanent Split Capacitor (PSC) type. The PSC motor, which is an alternating current (AC) motor, offered manufacturers an inexpensive power source whose speed could be electronically controlled to allow for airflow adjustment as the HEPA filter(s) loaded.

Particle Size Analysis Of Liposomes
By HORIBA Instruments, Inc.
Liposomes are bilayer vesicles made of phospholipids derived from natural or man-made materials mainly used for treatment of cancers as carriers of chemotherapeutic drugs to the tumor area. The amount of drug loaded into the liposomes and the size of the liposomes play pivotal roles in the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters of the drug. Hence accurate and rapid measurement of the size of liposomes is essential for novel and effective drug delivery systems.
