technique used when compounding suspensions. |
Lwvigation |
|
What is Levigation |
the process of grinding an insoluble substance to a fine powder, while wet. The material is introduced into the mill together with water, in which the powdered substance remains suspended, and flows from the mill as a turbid liquid or thin paste, according to the amount of water employed. This method is used to reduce the particle size of insoluble materials when compounding ointments and suspensions. |
