The Spark 20M multimode microplate reader has the ability to read 6- to 1536-well microplates and includes a high-frequency xenon flash lamp that can be combined with detection modules.

The Zeiss Smartproof 5 wide-field confocal microscope is designed for applications in quality assurance and quality control, production, and R&D laboratories.

There are many different approaches for assessing process parameter criticality, and assessing which process parameters have a significant impact on critical quality attributes (CQAs) is a particular challenge. Including an unimportant process parameter as a critical process parameter (CPP) in a control strategy can be detrimental. The authors present a statistical approach to determine when a statistically significant relationship between a process parameter and a CQA is large enough to make a practically meaningful impact (i.e., practical significance).
