Critical Micelle Concentration

Several sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) NaCl aqueous solutions were measured to demonstrate the feasibility of very fast determination of absolute critical micellar concentration (cmc), ionization degree α, aggregation number N and second virial coefficient B. This application note present results obtained using an Automatic Continuous Mixing (ACM) technique which includes a DAWN, RI and conductimetric detectors.

Hydroxyethylstarches (HES)

Due to its superior separation capability, especially on molecules exceeding 50kDa, Flow Field-Flow Fractionation (Flow-FFF) is an excellent separation alternative. By coupling this technology to a Multi Angle Light Scattering (MALS) detector, such as a DAWN or miniDAWN, absolute values can be determined without making any assumptions.

Stabilization of a Protein by a Peptide Mini-Chaperone [poster]

The objective of the present study was to determine the effect of a ’mini-chaperone’ on the stability of mutant αA-crystallin (αAG98R) protein. αA-mini-chaperone is αA-crystallinderived peptide which stabilizes the denaturing substrate proteins and prevents them from aggregation and precipitation.

Aggregation of Combinatorial Tau Protein [poster]

Tau is specifically expressed in neural cells and crucial for the proper development and maintenance of the nervous system. Tau can form insoluble intracellular aggregates known as neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), which are a pathological hallmark of many neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimers and FTDP-17.
