Measurement of inherent particle properties by dynamic light scattering: introducing electrorotational light scattering

Light scattering by cubical particle in the WKB approximation

In this work, we determined the analytical expressions of the form factor of a cubical particle in the WKB approximation. We adapted some variables (size parameter, refractive index, the scattering angle) and found the form factor in the approximation of Rayleigh-Gans-Debye (RGD), Anomalous Diffraction (AD), and determined the efficiency factor of the extinction. Finally, to illustrate our form...

Entrapment–D-(+)-Glucose Water Nanodroplet: Synthesis and Dynamic Light Scattering

In the present research, the D-(+)-Glucose–confined water nanodroplets with mean size in the range of 6-11 nm were synthesized at D-(+)-Glucose different concentrations by AOT reverse micelles (RMs) method as a function of mass fraction of droplet (MFD) at the constant water-to-surfactant molar ratio ( W=40). The dynamic light scattering of the nano-sized water droplets containing the D-(+)-Glu...

Measurement of lipoprotein particle sizes using dynamic light scattering.

BACKGROUND A simple method for the measurement of LDL particle sizes is needed in clinical laboratories because a predominance of small, dense LDL (sd LDL) has been associated with coronary heart disease. We applied dynamic light scattering (DLS) to measure lipoprotein particle sizes, with special reference to sd LDL. METHODS Human serum lipoproteins isolated by a combination of ultracentrifu...

Dynamic Light Scattering

A HeNe laser beam incident on a sample of micron-sized spheres suspended in water scatters into a random pattern of spots of varying size, shape, and intensity. The pattern results from the coherent superposition of the outgoing waves scattered from the spheres. Because the spheres are in constant Brownian motion, the pattern randomly changes in time. A photodetector is placed in the pattern an...
