Light Scattering
The Draganova Lab is equipped to perform a variety of light scattering experiments using Wyatt Technology - use the icons below to get more information. We use an Agilent HPLC system (Infinity 1260) to operate the instrumentation.

Multi-angle LIGHT SCATTERING (MALS)

Size-Exclusion Chromatography
Composition Gradient (CG)-MALS
Field-Flow Fractionation (FFF)-MALS
Differential Refractive Index (dRI)Detector
used in all applications
Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS)*
*Note: The DLS is compatible with quartz and disposable cuvettes. A quartz cuvette is needed for molar mass measurements, whereas size measurements can be done in either quartz or disposable cuvettes. The sample is recoverable from all cuvette styles. We have a quartz cuvette available for use, but we ask users to provide their own disposable cuvettes. There are two options:
As we develop our light scattering technologies, we will continue to include relevant protocols:
