Feller Statistical Corrections for the BioCapt Impactor
As the number of viable particles — colony forming units (CFUs) — impact on an agar plate increases, the probability that viable particles will enter unoccupied space decreases. Particles tend to run in straight lines and adhere to surfaces (agar plates) directly in their path. The impactor design allows viable particles, flowing in straight lines, to accelerate through the slits at an optimal flow rate. This results in viable particles captured at a high biological efficiency. […]

Particle Transportation in Tubing Connected to a Particle Counter
Transportation of particles through tubing between the sample inlet and the optics of a particle counter has often been at the forefront of discussion regarding the validity of readings.

Counting Efficiency and Resolution in Optical Particle Counters
Most Optical Particle Counters use a light source to illuminate a sample volume, an optical system to collect the particle’s scattered light pulse, a process to convert the scattered light into an electrical signal, and electronics to correlate particle size with the scattered light pulse. While the specific design varies greatly between manufacturers (and while the instruments vary with different sensitivity and flow rates), the fundamental principles of optical particle counter operation are quite similar across the industry. […]
Refractive Index Effects on Particle Size Measurement in Liquid Media by Optical Extinction
When monitoring larger size particles, extinction optical particle counting is the typical method used for accurate results. The refractive index difference between microcontaminants and the liquid media being measured can be explored in an effort to determine the related extinction response. At submicron particle ranges, the index contract between a particle and the liquid media is important. The interplay of refractive index contrast and particle size analysis in liquids can be explored and described with the aid of Mie theory. […]
