Malvern Instruments will introduce the Zetasizer uV with Omniface and Omnisec, a new SEC-LS (size-exclusion chromatography - light scattering) detector package, at SCM-5.
SCM-5 is the 5th International Symposium on the Separation and Characterization of Natural and Synthetic Macromolecules, and well take place on 26-28 January in Amsterdam.
The Zetasizer uV offers dual DLS (dynamic light scattering) and SLS (static light scattering) capabilities.
It can be used as a stand-alone detector analysing samples in a cuvette and now as a fully featured modular chromatography detector, making it suitable for protein applications.
Applications in stand-alone batch mode include the study of molecular size and formulation stability and, in SEC detector mode, the measurement of molecular weight, determination of oligomeric state and detection, and quantification of oligomers and aggregates.
Malvern specialists are also taking an active role in the SCM-5 conference, presenting a paper on 'Exploring the relationship between intrinsic viscosity and protein structure'.
