Litesizer – Particle Size, Zetapotential
- Name: DLS – Dynamic Light Scattering
- Manufacturer: Anton Paar
- Type: Litesizer 500
- Description of analytical method:
Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) is a powerful technique for measuring particle size and understanding the behavior of particles in suspension. The Anton Paar Litesizer 500 uses DLS for accurate particle size analysis and Zeta Potential measurements, which indicate the surface charge and stability of colloidal dispersions. Zeta potential reflects the electrostatic repulsion between particles. High zeta potential values indicate stable dispersions, while low values can lead to aggregation. The Litesizer 500 utilizes electrophoretic light scattering (ELS) to track particle movement in an electric field, providing precise zeta potential measurements. Key features of the Litesizer 500: Accurate Zeta Potential Determination Offers reliable measurements of surface charge for assessing dispersion stability. Wide Range of Applications: Ideal for nanoparticles, proteins, colloids, emulsions, and suspensions in industries like pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and materials science. High Sensitivity: Provides precise measurements even in low-concentration samples or at high resolution. By combining DLS and Zeta Potential analysis, the Litesizer 500 enables comprehensive insights into particle size and stability, improving formulations, quality control, and process optimization across various industries.
