Mastersizer 3000+

World's most popular particle size analyzers

The Mastersizer 3000+ is your reliable partner for particle size analysis. It consistently delivers robust data – plus digital and Artificial Intelligence-based solutions – to inform critical decision-making in your R&D and manufacturing. 

Mastersizer 3000+ Ultra

Standardized workflows:
50% faster method development with ICH Q14 compliance

SOP Architect helps to develop repeatable and robust methods 50% faster than traditional methods. It follows a structured workflow, so it is fully aligned with the latest best practice as described in regulatory guidance such as ICH Q14

3x better specificity
for reliable PSD to seperate noise

Size Sure delivers clear particle size analysis by reducing interference from contaminants, bubbles, and dust. These elements can distort the scattering signal and lead to misleading particle size data. By effectively reducing their impact, Size Sure delivers the reliable insights you need to develop robust methods more efficiently.

Omni Trust

Built for pharmaceutical precision

When it comes to small molecule development, accuracy and reproducibility aren’t optional - they’re essential. The Mastersizer 3000+ delivers both thanks to its patented folded optical design, dual light sources and high-speed analysis. 

 

Confidence in Every Decision:


Mastersizer results are recognized as the industry standard, giving you reliable, reproducible data that supports faster approvals, better product quality, and reduced risk.

Measure More, Faster:

From excipients to APIs, the Mastersizers optical bench with inbuilt thermal management ensures seamless analysis —even in challenging organic dispersants. 

Adaptable to Every Sample Type

For small-volume early samples, efficient dispersion for agglomerates, to flexible dry dispersion for sticky APIs or fragile granules. Mastersizer offers the range of dispersion units to deliver accurate results without compromise. 


When to choose Mastersizer 3000+?

Choose the Mastersizer 3000+ when precise, reproducible particle size analysis is critical across R&D and manufacturing stages, especially for optimizing dissolution rates, bioavailability, and formulation stability in small molecule drug development. 

 

Drug formulation


Precise particle size control is crucial for ensuring consistent drug delivery and effectiveness. The Mastersizer 3000+ helps measure the size and distribution of drug particles, allowing for the optimization of formulations for targeted release or improved bioavailability.

Active pharmaceutical ingredients and particle sizing during development

Deformulation


Mastersizer 3000+ can help analyze the particle size distribution of a pharmaceutical dosage form, which is a key piece of information in understanding the formulation and potentially developing bioequivalent generics.

The future of generic drug development

Micronization analysis


Micronization is a process that reduces particle size. The Mastersizer 3000+ can be used to analyze the effectiveness of micronization techniques in achieving the desired particle size for specific pharmaceutical applications.

Stability studies


Changes in particle size over time can affect a drug's stability and effectiveness. The Mastersizer 3000+ allows for monitoring particle size during stability studies to identify potential formulation issues.
