Abstract: The requirements of the USP Content Uniformity test are translated into physical and mathematical parameters. Assuming spherical particle sizes with a log normal distribution, the mean particle size and particle size distribution required to insure a high probability of passing the content uniformity test are calculated. On the basis of these calculations it is shown that satisfactory tablets of low doses cannot be manufactured from a drug that does not meet certain particle size distribution specifications.

“…The size of the particles in a solid powder is a critical property to monitor and control in many industries, especially in the pharmaceutical industry. Particle size directly impacts properties such as dissolution rate, mixing uniformity, and compaction behavior. Methods commonly used to measure particle size include laser diffraction techniques and microscopy . Laser diffraction is typically used to measure particles nominally ranging from 0.2 to 2000 μm in size.…”

“…The size of the tablet core met the requirements of the Indonesian Pharmacopoeia [6]. Furthermore, the diameter of the tablet core was not more than three times and not less than fourthirds of the thickness of each tablet [6,22,23]. The tablet hardness test was conducted to measure the compactness of the pressure, i.e.…”

“…The Nador bentonite analyzed show a wide variation in particle size distribution; four particle size fractions were identified: clay (17.3%), silt (38.7%), sand (43.9%) and gravel (0.1%). The grain sizes of clay characterize by the uniformity coefficient or Hazen coefficient allows to express the spread of the curve granulometric, and the curvature coefficient is used to describe the shape of the particle size curve [30]. The particle size curves of the bentonite investigated is well spread out (Fig.…”
