Particle size is very important in the preparation of suspensions, the smaller the better. There are three ways to reduce the particle size of the dispersed phase. Which of the following is NOT one of the three? A. micropulverization B. spray drying C. flocculation D. jet milling

Which of the following is NOT one of the three desirable characteristics specifically expected of a suspension as a dosage form? A. the velocity of falling particles is greater for large and dense particles than for small, less dense particles B. particle size of the dispersed phase (suspensoid) should remain uniform and not form aggregates C. the suspension should pour readily and evenly from the container D. the dispersed phase should settle slowly and be easily resuspended with gentle shaking

The largest particles are removed by a) Screening b) Sedimentationc) Filtration and water softening d) All the above
