8 Practical Lessons from a Particle Analysis Webinar

The most revealing part of a technical webinar often comes after the slides — in the questions. During a recent webinar on particle analysis, a series of short but thoughtful questions surfaced. Individually, they touched on size metrics, brightness and contrast, segmentation, automation, and data integration. Taken together, they paint a clear picture of what users actually need from modern particle analysis workflows.

Particle Size Metrics Are Expected - But Not the End Goal

Brightness, Contrast and Segmentation Are Central — Not Secondary

Channeling, Contrast and When Artifacts Become Information

Overlapping Particles Are the Rule, Not the Exception

Automation Must Survive Heterogeneous Samples

Holders, Templates and “Unexciting” Features

Particle Analysis Is Increasingly About Data Integration

So, How Many Particles Are Enough?
