Particle Analysis Software Optional
This application software can be used for a wide range of samples, from soft to hard materials, to provide powerful
help for observing what you want to observe.
Task Statistically analyze the diameter and length of many nanoparticles or nanofibers.
˙ Silica Nanoparticle Size Analysis
Particle count Number of levels = 16
5.00 µm × 5.00 µm 5.000 µm × 5.000 µm Maximum Z-Value (µm)
Height Image Fiber Isolation Histogram of Particle Size Distribution
˙ Fiber Length Analysis of Cellulose Nanofibers
Particle count Number of levels = 24
1.00 µm × 1.00 µm 1.000 µm × 1.000 µm Maximum Z-Value (µm)
Height Image Fiber Isolation Histogram of Boundary Length Distribution
This allows isolating numerous nanoparticles and nanofibers from observation data and calculating their diameter,
boundary length, or other characteristic quantities. Fiber length is calculated as half the boundary length. Because it
can statistically determine characteristic quantities for numerous samples, it can also be used for shape-based quality
control applications.
