The Coulter Principle for Analysis of Subvisible Particles in Protein Formulations
Journal Title: The AAPS Journal - Year 2011, Vol 13, Issue 1
Abstract
The Coulter principle can be used for analysis of subvisible particles in protein formulations. The approach has several advantages including: an orthogonal operating principle, high sensitivity, ability to detect very small particles, excellent reproducibility, and high-resolution size information. This minireview discusses some of the important considerations that must be taken into account when utilizing the Coulter principle for subvisible particle analysis in protein formulations.
