Micro Flow Imaging (MFI)

Agile BioScience: Visualizing Particle Contaminants with Micro-Flow Imaging

The instructional chapter USP<1787> mentions MFI as a possible orthogonal technique for subvisible particle analysis in addition to light obscuration. Micro-Flow Imaging (MFI) is an essential tool for characterizing sub-visible particles in biopharmaceuticals, ensuring product purity and patient safety. Agile BioScience employs MFI to provide comprehensive particle analysis services.

Our Approach:
  • ​Advanced MFI Systems: We leverage the MFI 5000 series or comparable systems for high-quality particle imaging and analysis.
  • The digital images of the particles present in the sample are processed by image morphology analysis software that allows their quantification in size and count.
  • Data-Driven Guidance: We interpret MFI data to provide insights into the nature of particles and potential sources of contamination.
Benefits of Choosing Agile BioScience:
  • ​Comprehensive Particle Characterization: Gain a deep understanding of particle types, quantities, and sizes in your product.
  • Troubleshooting Support: Identify the root causes of particulate matter and optimize manufacturing processes to minimize contamination.
  • Confidence in Product Purity: Ensure your biopharmaceuticals meet stringent quality standards for patient safety.
