FlowCam LO Flow Imaging Microscopy with Light Obscuration
Manufacturer: Yokogawa Fluid Imaging Technologies, Inc.
Description
The FlowCam LO from Yokogawa Fluid Imaging Technologies combines two established particle analysis techniques into a single instrument. It merges flow imaging microscopy with light obscuration (also known as light blockage) sensing. This configuration is particularly relevant for applications demanding rigorous sub-visible particle analysis, such as in the pharmaceutical industry for injectable drug products. The imaging component delivers visual data on particle shape and morphology, while the integrated light obscuration sensor provides a high-sensitivity count and size distribution based on the shadow cast by each particle. The instrument is designed to analyze particles within a size range of 2 to 70 micrometers. By correlating visual imagery with volumetric sizing data, the system offers a more complete analytical profile than either method could provide independently.
