Partner institution: 3:MasarykUniversity-CEITEC
Core facility: Biomolecular Interactions and Crystallization
Category of instrument / technology: Characterization
Web category: 2 : characterisation
Instrument name: Particle-size analysis (Light scattering)
Description EN:
Dynamic light scattering is used for the analysis of protein solutions, aggregates, promiscuous inhibitors, buffers, nanoparticles, polymers or other products in solution. DLS system measures the polydispersity of the sample and hydrodynamic radii (size) of the particles within range of 0.4 to 5,000 nm. This is particularly beneficial in sample characterization prior to crystallization or other experiments. DynaPro Plate reader allows to measure 96/384 samples in one run.
Part of research platform:
The core facility provides services leading to biophysical and structure characterization of biomolecules and to study (bio)molecular interactions.  It is equipped with the instrumentation to set up crystallization conditions of biomolecules and their complexes, basic characterization of physical properties of the molecules (analytical ultracentrifugation, dynamic light scattering, CD spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, differential scanning fluorimetry), and to study thermodynamics and/or kinetics of interactions (isothermal titration calorimetry, surface plasmon resonance, microscale thermophoresis, CD spectroscopy, analytical ultracentrifugation).
