Particles fall under these 3 areas (3)
Foreign
Proteinaceous
Inherent
General area that is Describe as particles for non product material and not related to the product
Foreign
General area that are product related
particularly that is round or amorphous particle that could be translucent to whitish and naturally buoyant in the solution
Proteinaceous
General area that are particles from non
product material related to manufacturing processes.
Inherent
A term for mixture of solid particles and
liquid droplets in the air
