The company claims more than 15 years experience gained with Sympatec and more than two years working closely with major pharmaceutical companies on method development and training programmes
Practikum was set up to provide expertise in the particle characterisation field, specifically using the measurement principle of laser diffraction to determine particle size distributions.
There are many industries for whom powder processing and particle characterisation go hand in hand.
A good understanding of the behaviour of particles (in wet, dry and aerosol form) is essential in order to optimise processes and maximise product performance and quality.
Practikum offers a mix of services to clients:.
On-site consultancy providing hands-on help to improve the quality of data generated using particle sizing equipment.
Training modules for new analysts and those wishing to understand more about their laser diffraction systems.
Method development support to ensure that the measurement parameters used for a given material are both appropriate and optimised for the type of sample being measured.
A contract particle size analysis service using Sympatec laser diffraction technology for clients who have need of such data but currently have no system available.
