Reference
Endpoint:
particle size distribution (granulometry)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
2022-09-08
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
test procedure in accordance with national standard methods with acceptable restrictions
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
- Principle of test: Sieving and weighing
- Short description of test conditions: 100 g of the substance were weighed. After this, the substance was put in an analytical sieve machine and sieved under controlled electromagnetic drive for 3 min. The test was done in triplicate.
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
sieving
Type of particle tested:
other: granulated test item
Type of distribution:
volumetric distribution
