Configurable as a stand-alone low angle light scattering (Lals) detector or as a Lals and viscometry dual detector, this systems suits labs undertaking characterisation of proteins and biomolecules
Available from Viscotek, the model 270 Dual Detector is an entry-level system for laboratories looking to make detailed characterisation of proteins, and other biomolecules.
The model 270 may be configured as a stand-alone low angle light scattering (Lals) detector or as a Lals and viscometry dual detector.
The unique dual detector model 270 can be added to any commercial GPC/SEC system equipped with a concentration detector, instantly converting it into a powerful triple detector system.
Previously only available on Viscotek's TDA system, Lals detection is now available on an entry-level system.
This means that for a wide range of proteins, peptides and biomolecules researchers can make routine direct determination of absolute molecular weight on the highly affordable model 270.
Unlike multi-angle light scattering techniques that can only determine molecular weight by extrapolation, the model 270 Lals measures molecular weight directly and thus is inherently more accurate.
Incorporating patented optical technology that will effectively operate at an angle of only 7deg, the Lals detector represents a major breakthrough in light scattering technology says Viscotek.
Configured with an additional differential viscometer the model 270 provides valuable further information including hydrodynamic radius, density and conformation as well as providing structural data such as branching and aggregation.
