Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The apparati, methods, and computer program products disclosed herein can be used to nondestructively detect undissolved particles, such as glass flakes and/or protein aggregates, in a fluid in a vessel, such as, but not limited to, a fluid that contains a drug.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method of nondestructive counting and sizing of undissolved particles in a vessel that is at least partially filled with a fluid, the method comprising: capturing, via an imager, at least one image of the particles in the vessel that has been imaged under specified imaging conditions; storing, via a processor coupled to a memory, the at least one image in the memory; analyzing, via the processor, the at least one image to detect the particles and to ca…
