Easy to use, analysis of complex material is a challenge due to Refractive Index
Application Area:Particle size analysis
"The analyzer is used for bioprocess application. The limitation of the instrument is that the samples gets diluted and I think the dilution of my sample leads to may affect the particle size. The results are reproducible. The system is easy to use. It is important to say the refractive index of material and sample is necessary for testing. Because, if the material is complex and the refractive index is unknown it would lead to false particle size. The instrument is easy to use but a through video on operation of the instrument would be great. I had a hard time getting answers from tech support on the refractive index of the material. It is definitely worth the money."
Manufacturer's ResponseDear Shreyas Yedahalli, Thank you for your thorough review. These sound like thought-provoking samples. You are right the correct optical properties are important and I am sorry you had difficulty finding the answers you needed. There are some things that can help, on our website there is a ‘Refractive index and dispersion guide’ which covers the more common materials but there are also some recorded webinars that give guidance on finding the appropriate values and these can be found if you search for ‘Masterclass 3 - Configuring the Optical model for you Material’. There are also other webinars too that can show more general instrument operation, eg. ‘Masterclass 2 - Method development’ or ‘Demo at Your Desk’. Dilution shock can occur in some materials and is advisable to use a diluent as close in nature as possible to the continuous phase. I hope ‘Top tips for avoiding particle sizing failures with your laser diffraction method’ can help. Please do give your local technical suppor

Reliable equipment and cost effective if used routinely. Easy to use.
Application Area:Food Ingredients/Non-Animal Protein materials for Particle Size
"The equipment is easy to use and does not require daily calibration. Calibration is done annually and our group has Malvern do this annually. Training could be better and it should be on-line. Dry particle analysis is very easy for free-flowing materials. It gets more difficult when the moisture content is higher and the product is sticky in nature. This is where training would help or helpful hints. The wet analysis is very easy. Hydration of material could be an issue and the lab needs to experiment with the time of hydration versus particle size. Data is typically taken directly from the results page. Reports would be nice if we were trained to do so. Again, training would be helpful. This would apply to all vendors and teach customers how to design reports from their software. The software has errored only a few times in 3 years but it is a mystery when it happens and the solution was to restart the software. The cost of the equipment is high. The information is valuable to us. Service contract or Annual maintenance is high but probably in -line with other vendors. The equipment is reliable"

Software needs some corrections.
Application Area:Particle size analysis
"Hydro LV unit is ok when water is used but other solvents(like ethanol, heptane) make bubbles which may affect the test result. We are also using Mastersizer 2000G in which the sieve analysis calculation is a helpful tool that doesn't take place for 3000. I'd rather prefer to have this option for 3000 instrument software too. Moreover, for 2000G, the stirrer unit has three controls which are ultrasound, stirrer, and pump. But for 3000 LV unit, there is only stirrer and ultrasound options. This is not enough to overcome the bubbling problem. In my opinion, the pump should also be one of the controls like in Mastersizer 2000G."
Manufacturer's ResponseHi Ender, many thanks for your review. When using organic solvents the issue is likely to be related to thermal stability and not bubble formation due to their volatility. Stirrer speed and paddle speed are the same thing as the same motor controls the shaft to which the propellers and paddles which control stirring / pumping are attached. You can use the “user sizes” in the “data processing” part of the MS3000 software to replicate the sieve cuts used on the MS2000 sieve analysis calculation. If you require any additional detail regarding this response please consult with your local Malvern Panalytical representative.

"MS 3000 instrument measures the size of particles contained within a sample and presenting data according to the user’s needs. MS 3000 has different dispersion units depending upon the user needs/application/sample quantity like dry (From fragile powders to coarse abrasives) and wet (From large volume to small volume-LV,MV,SV). It has exceptional resolution across the entire measurement range and precise, rapid and reproducible measurement with no cross-contamination. With 21 CFR compliant software with measurements traceable to USP, EP and ISO standards.

"The illustrated and indexed user manual is great. The online training modules with trouble shooting and data graph examples are superb. I was able to write an SOP with detailed scope and references from these two resources. I went from being a complete novice, to being able to describe the theory behind the choices of how we set up our instrument's SOP. Within a month, a graduate student had gone on to running 500 samples with no problems whatsoever. No more sending samples to another lab with competitive time slots. No more lengthy explanations of how things could be "problematic". The Mastersizer 3000 software's customizable UI has caused students to take an interest in how much information they can see during a lab run...causing them to think critically about their data. Before it was just another CSV file to run statistical analysis on. The instrument has a small footprint compared to it's predecessor the MS2000. Actually, it is compact compared to a lot of instruments that have fluids flowing in and out of them! The surface is robust; I am not afraid of cables or cords getting caught on each other."

"The ease of use compared to the older 2000 unit is incredible! Changes in the software make it much more user-friendly for technicians at an everyday-use level with the method wizard. The technicians have always been very helpful with advice for the development of new methods and how to optimize them depending on the carrier oil or the particle of interest. The 21 CFR 11 compliance package has also been an incredible help with the transition to data integrity requirements for many regulatory bodies."

Outstanding instrument for sediment size analysis. Great value for money.
Application Area:Sedimentology
"MasterSizer 3000 is a very interesting product that has replaced the previous methodology for sediment analysis that we had in our research workflow. It's a robust instrument, that delivers trustworthy and consistent results. It has a particle analysis size spectrum bigger than we had before and the software that supports it is very robust and feature rich. The only thing that can be improved are the routines for cleaning after a sample analysis because, most of the time, under some setup circumstances, it takes more time to prepare the instrument for another sample that the time needed for each analysis. However this is a minor issue that can be easily solved."
Manufacturer's ResponseSediments can be challenging samples, so it's great to hear that you're getting good results. We'll take on board your feedback about the cleaning process, thanks for the review!

Precise measurements, excellent assistant.
Application Area:Particle size analysis
"I started using Mastersizer recently, after half a year of downtime. Calibration was easy, and analysis started immediately. Automatic cell cleaning system is perfect, repeatet analysis of the same samples showed very good reproducibility. Even new users find it easy to learn to work with Aero S model for dry samples analysis. Nonetheless wet analysis is preferred for us. The most imporatant thing is to keep the sample bath clean, expecially the glass and your Mastersizer 3000. This will make sure it works for a long time and correctly!"

"The Mastersizer 3000 is very simple to use and very quick. The previous instrument runs take about 10 minutes after preparation of the sample. With the Mastersizer prep and run time is half that. The customer service is very attentive, and quick to help resolve any issues.

In the few times we have had them come out, they are here within 5 to 10 days."

Good design, better application & fully compliant.
Application Area:Pharmaceuticals drug substances and raw materials
"The Mastersizer 3000 instrument is considered to be the most advanced instrument in the field of particle size determination. Instrument provides rapid and accurate particle size distribution using both dry and wet dispersion in the range of 0.1 – 1000μm. Software is 21 CFR part 11 compliant. Has a laser as source with an array detector. Various dry dispersion and wet dispersion accessories are available to use as per application. Good accuracy, precision and reproducibility. The instrument is quite compact and decent looking. Only issue I can find is that result are sometimes not comparable with Mastersizer 2000."
