Newly developed Laboratory-based Size exclusion chromatography Small-angle x-ray scattering System (La-SSS)

Online ion-exchange chromatography for small-angle X-ray scattering

Biological small-angle X-ray scattering (BioSAXS) is a powerful technique to determine the solution structure, particle size, shape and surface-to-volume ratio of macromolecules. However, a drawback is that the sample needs to be monodisperse. To ensure this, size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) has been implemented on many BioSAXS beamlines. Here, the integration of ion-exchange chromatography ...

Application of small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) for differentiation between normal and cancerous breast tissues

ABSTRACT Background: Coherent scattering leads to diffraction effects and especially constructive interferences. Theseinterferences carry some information about the molecular structure of the tissue. As breast cancer isthe most widespread cancer in women, this project evaluated the application of small angleX-ray scattering (SAXS) for differentiation between normal and cancerous breast tissues....

Nanoparticle size distribution quantification: results of a small-angle X-ray scattering inter-laboratory comparison

This paper presents the first worldwide inter-laboratory comparison of small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) for nanoparticle sizing. The measurands in this comparison are the mean particle radius, the width of the size distribution and the particle concentration. The investigated sample consists of dispersed silver nanoparticles, surrounded by a stabilizing polymeric shell of poly(acrylic acid)....

Ultra-small-angle X-ray Scattering

Magnetic Small Angle X-Ray Scattering

We present first experimental results of the extension of X-ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism (X-MCD) to Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS). The purpose of this study is to determine size distributions and correlations lengths in the nanometer range of magnetic precipitates in granular systems. Magnetic scattering curves obtained with a GdFe system at the Gd La edge are compared with reference m...
