Dynamic Light Scattering: How to Handle Dust & Contaminants

This instructional video reveals methods and strategies targeting improvement of DLS results by proper sample preparation and clean-up. It aims to show how dust and other contaminants may negatively influence results and how these negative effects can be avoided or at least minimized.

The Basics: Particle Sizing

Nowadays particle sizing is quite straightforward, being simplified by advanced instrumentation and software. However, understanding of the basics of the determination and data processing is always a great place to start. This video explains terminology and meaning of the most common result values found in DLS applications.

Zeta Potential Basics

Similar to Particle Sizing, Zeta Potential determination is straightforward, being simplified by advanced instrumentation and software. However, understanding of basics of the determination and data processing, is always a great basis to start with, This video explains terminology and meaning of the most common result values found in ELS and PALS applications.

Applications Series: Surface Charge on Membranes

Zeta Potential has very important parameters not only in liquids but also for solid surfaces. Membranes are a particular type of surface, designed to allow molecules of certain sizes to pass freely while retaining larger ones. This process is however not only controlled by the pore size of the membrane, it is also influenced by the surface charge of the membrane, reading its Surface Zeta Potential. This video shows a typical application related to this highly interesting topic.

Applications Series: Cosmetics

Cosmetics are complex preparations with many components and extended requirements. This application demonstrate how one of the basic components, commonly present for example in sun screens, is characterized by DLS in order to determine the average Particle Size and Distribution.
