Assessing the effect of formulation composition on spidroin charge and stability

03/24/2016 | Sponsored by Malvern Panalytical

This application note describes the use of a Zetasizer Nano ZSP to characterize the charge state of spidroins in different formulations. The earliest stages of spidroin aggregation in different formulations are then assessed using low-temperature synamic light scattering (DLS) thermal trend experiments.

Case study: Effects of gamma-ray sterilization on high molecular weight

03/24/2016 | Baljit Ghatora

A sample of PMMA was analysed by Size Exclusion Chromatography with Triple detection, before and after sterilization. Reduction in the molecular weight was shown to be firstly by cleaving the polymer at the branching points.

Viscotek SEC-MALS 20 to measure protein aggregation

03/24/2016 | Sponsored by Malvern Panalytical

In this application note, a selection of proteins are separated using Size Exclusion Chromatograpghy (SEC). The molecular weights of their oligomers and aggregates are measured by SEC-MALS and the results discussed.
