Chirinos-Flores et al., Gelation of amphiphilic janus particles in an apolar medium, Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 590 (2021) 12-18.

Dynamic Light Scattering analyzes the dynamics of particles in suspension. In gel systems, however, the dynamics of the systems are partially “frozen” due to a network in which the particles are trapped. For such non-ergodic systems, DLS cannot produce reproducible data and an advanced technique...

NanoLab 3D

The NanoLab 3D is a compact DLS instrument for particle sizing that is based on the groundbreaking and patented Modulated 3D Cross-Correlation technology. It efficiently suppresses multiple light scattering and therefore sample dilution is no longer required for most samples.

The viscosity of concentrated protein solutions is a crucial parameter in injectability studies, but also difficult to measure due to the small volumes involved.

DLS microviscometry is a unique and powerful characterization method for this problematic. LS Instruments poster, presented at...
