Executive summary:

For the measurement, a dispersion of L-Carnitine (CIS 1000) Lot-No: A10018 in Isooctane/2-Propanol (7:3)

as a start medium and at least Isooctane/2-Propanol (9:1) as a measurement medium was used to ensure

that the sample material will not dissolved additional in the solvent.

Results of the Particle Size Distribution measurements:

d(0.1): 91.83 μm d(0.5): 266.35 μm d(0.9): 623.96 μm

Volume weighted mean: 317.54 μm
