Allowing researchers to work with sizes in the range of 1 nm to 500 nm and follow each assembly and stability parameter, such as pH, temperature and ionic strength the Zetasizer µV dynamic light scattering (DLS) system can characterize the size of proteins and how they interact to produce multimeric forms or even supramolecular arrangements of the protein such as viral capsids (shells). The included software is user-friendly and in addition to measuring particle size it delivers information about the quality of sample preparation. This device can be used as a chromatography detector to measure absolute size and absolute molecular weight by connecting it to your SEC system using standard chromatography tubing.
