Particle Sizing & Identification Impacts Industries

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

ATLANTA, June 8th, 2005- As a leading authority in the Science of Small Things, Atlanta-based MVA Scientific Consultants has developed an international reputation for its expertise in dealing with the small, unseen issues that can impact a number of products and materials. Over the past 15 years, the Firm has helped industries ranging from pharmaceuticals to construction materials address issues involving product formulation and performance.

“Nanoparticles and microparticles are important components of many materials used in manufacturing and processing, however they may also cause formulation and performance problems,” according to Tim B. Vander Wood, Ph.D., Managing Director at MVA Scientific Consultants. “In both cases, Particle Sizing and Identification can be instrumental in monitoring and minimizing these problems,” says Vander Wood.

MVA Scientific Consultants specializes in Particle Sizing and Identification, which is the dimensional measurement and analysis of individual particles in order to determine their size, shape, and chemical composition. “We go beyond routine light scattering methods of particle sizing to help our clients determine the characteristics of thousands of individual particles in a single sample,” adds Vander Wood.
