Barium Sulphate Paste Powder Suspension HD RT Enema Enema (Disp) CT (Disp) CAT CAT2 Gas One-Shot-Inflator & Air-Insufflator

During 1964, Eskay started the manufacturing of precipitated micronized grade of Barium sulphate B.P./U.S.P. only the micronized grade of “Barium Sulphate’ can comply with the parameter of bulkiness /sedimentation prescribed in B.P./ U.S.P.

It is a well known fact that coarse particles of Barium Sulphate gives the best x-ray results. Hence, U.S.P.26 & B.P.2010 has deleted the test for bulkiness /sedimentation.

Hence, most of the microbar products are manufactured by using coarse particles of Barium Sulphate B.P./U.S.P.

1. Since barium sulphate is odourless and tasteless, the demand of palatable formulation of Barium sulphate was felt. “Eskay” developed the required formulations and marketed them in the brand name of microbar.

To encourage the marketing of new innovative products, the “Indian Radiological and Imaging Association” (I.R.I.A.) started the practice of awarding “certificate of merit” during 1984.
