Measuring the thermal sensitive rheological behavior of BSA solution with the BeNano 180 Zeta

18 Oct 2023

Dynamic light scattering microrheology (DLS microrheology) is a technique that uses dynamic light scattering to measure the mean square displacements (MSD) of added inert tracer particles in a solution environment and further obtain the rheological information of solutions. In this application note from Bettersize Instruments, explore how the DLS microrheology can be used to characterize weakly structured polymer and protein solutions, and also gel systems, in which tracer particles can diffuse over significant distances.

Clinical ChemistryBiochemistry (or clinical chemistry) involves the analysis of bodily fluids using chemical tests. Techniques used include HPLC, chromatography, spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, immunochemical, electrophoresis, turbidometric / spectrophotometric assay, MRI and ISE analysis. Tests are often carried out on plasma or serum but urine (urinalysis) and fecal specimens are also processed.PolymersPolymers are large molecules made up of many repeat units. Natural polymers such as DNA and proteins are essential to life, whereas synthetic polymers such as polystyrene and polyethylene are used widely due to their functionality. Typical techniques for analysis include GPC, SEC, DSC, FT-IR and NMR.Rheology
