Uniform Suspension of the Clustered Triamcinolone Acetonide Particle

Figure 3

Microscopic images of the suspended homogenate particles. Microscopic images of the MaQ particles are shown after suspensions using the different techniques. All methods yielded homogeneous suspensions. Vortex mixer used for 15 min (a) or 30 min (b). Syringe system used for 5 min (c) or 10 min (d). Ultrasonic washer used for 15 min (e) or 30 min (f). Single particle counts for the homogenate particle suspensions is shown (g). Processing by each technqiue resulted in significant increases in the separated particle counts as compared to the preprocessing counts. , nonrepeated ANOVA. Bar: 50 μm.
