FlowCam LO

For the first time ever, you can obtain Light Obscuration data to meet USP regulatory guidelines, and verify your data with real images, all with a single instrument, and a single sample run.

Our new FlowCam LO instrument combines our patented flow imaging microscopy technology with an embedded light obscuration particle counter to provide you with the necessary data for USP regulations and validation with images.

In FlowCam LO, a single sample passes continuously through two flow cells. The first uses FlowCam technology to capture digital images and the second uses the light obscuration method to collect data for USP regulations.

While analysis with light obscuration is standard, the FDA has long made clear that size data alone, collected with light obscuration, is not adequate to ensure safe and effective drugs, and that it's necessary to provide validation and imaging data using orthogonal methods. FlowCam LO has the orthogonal method built in.
