Abstract: In an apparatus for collecting aerosolised respirable particles of an inhalable medicinal formulation, aerosolised formulation is drawn pneumatically through a dose collection section comprising an inlet orifice (201) and an air-permeable filter (206), the filter being positioned opposed to said orifice, and extending across the pathway (4) for filtering the pneumatic flow so as to retain particulate material therein on the filter, and the orifice (201) being so dimensioned and configured that it has an unimpeded area that is no less than 75% of the area of the filter (201) on which the dose will be collected. In a method using the apparatus, particles (209, 210) collected on the filter may optionally be subjected to a dissolution test.

Abstract: A method of measuring the transit time of an ultrasonic wave in a medium, by passing an ultrasonic wave pulse through a timing path in the medium, receiving the ultrasonic wave pulse at the exit of the timing path and comparing a first signal representative of the ultrasonic wave pulse on entry to the timing path with a second signal representative of the ultrasonic wave pulse received at the exit of the timing path. At least one cycle and associated zero-crossing point of the first signal is correlated with a corresponding cycle and zero-crossing point of the second signal, and the time interval is measured between the zero crossing points, in order to determine the transit time of the ultrasonic wave through the medium. The method is useful in a sensor for measuring gas composition, as well as bulk gas flow velocity. The sensor and method may be used in a dual channel apparatus for investigating vapour sorption by a substrate.
