February 2018 Webinar: Measuring Particles Size Using Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) Processes

Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), also known as both Quasi-Elastic Light Scattering and Photon Correlation Spectroscopy, is an advanced method of measuring particle size in a liquid or solution at the sub-micron scale.

The sensitivity of some modern systems is such that it can also now be used to measure the size of macromolecules in solution.

In this presentation Dr Mike Kaszuba will summarise how the technique works, what its size and concentration limits are and discuss its advantages and disadvantages.

The webinar will take place on 1 February from 10:30 to 11:30 Easten US and Canada time.

Speaker Dr Mike Kaszuba is a technical support manager at Malvern Instruments. He has a PhD from the Polytechnic of Wales, where he studied the physical biochemistry of liposomes using nuclear magnetic resonance techniques.

He followed this with postdoctoral research into liposomal drug delivery at the University of Manchester. Michael joined Malvern in 1996 as a product technical specialist and two years later was appointed in his current role, responsible for the product technical specialist and application groups based in the UK.

Who should attend?

You should attend if you are working with or are interested in dynamic light scattering and would like an overview of the technique, including its benefits and limitations.

What will you learn?

You will learn about how Dynamic Light Scattering works, including the generation and interpretation of the correlation function and how this is used to give particle size information.

Why attend?

This is an opportunity to get a basic overview of dynamic light scattering and its applications from one of Malvern Panalytical's Zetasizer experts.
