In this application note, intrinsic viscosity measurements were performed on the sRAGE protein to establish whether the detector was able to detect and characterize the conformational change induced by the presence of calcium. Light scattering molecular weight measurements were also performed. Data are also presented showing that the conformation of sRAGE changes in the presence and absence of calcium.

This article explores how multiple detectors, particularly light scattering detectors, may be used for size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) in protein analysis. Using a light scattering detector as part of a multi-detector Size Exclusion Chromatography system provides the accurate molecular weight (MW) data needed to assess the activity, safety and clinical efficacy of therapeutic proteins.
The latest advances in the widely used technique of size exclusion chromatography (SEC) break new ground in terms of accuracy and sensitivity. This article assesses the information provided by multi-detector SEC and the potential benefits of recent innovations for polymeric food additive characterization.

In this application note, a mixture of four proteins was characterized in a single SEC measurement using multiple detectors. The generally consistent response to the RI to proteins makes it a useful total protein concentration detector, while the UV detector can be used to measure the concentration of individual proteins when the extinction coefficient is known. This is particularly useful for proteins that elute in the solvent peak making RI measurements unreliable. Finally, light scattering measurements allow each peak to be identified by its molecular weight.

The ideal solvent for a material may not provide a sufficient refractive index difference for light scattering detection. This example of a biodegradable polymer shows how SELS is used to increase dn/dc to give enhanced detection sensitivity
