Product Description: Halo Labs Horizon Particle Analyzer - Pre-owned
The Halo Labs Horizon Particle Analyzer is an advanced, second-hand system designed for the precise measurement and characterization of subvisible particles using innovative Backgrounded Membrane Imaging (BMI) technology. By leveraging the principles of membrane microscopy, a United States Pharmacopeia (USP) lot release methodology, the Horizon system provides high-throughput analysis with minimal sample volumes. This fully automated, fluidics-free system employs disposable membrane plates in conjunction with state-of-the-art image processing to deliver accurate particle counts and size distributions quickly. Capable of analyzing up to 96 samples in a single run with only 25 µL per sample, it is highly efficient for laboratories requiring robust particle analysis.
One of the significant advantages of BMI is its insensitivity to the refractive index of the solution, ensuring dependable measurements of translucent protein aggregates. The Horizon system utilizes advanced image processing techniques to analyze particle data efficiently. Initially, a background image of the membrane is captured. After vacuum filtration captures sample particles, the membrane is re-imaged with the particles on its surface. This new image is meticulously aligned with the pre-captured background, allowing pixel-by-pixel processing to remove background texture, thus presenting particles in high contrast. This backgrounding process ensures high reproducibility and minimal interference from membrane texture and imperfections, making the Horizon system an ideal choice for precise subvisible particle analysis in various research applications.
