DynaPro Plate Reader III
High-throughput, automated dynamic light scattering.
The DynaPro Plate Reader III provides unparalleled levels of productivity and flexibility for the most demanding nanoparticle sizing and protein aggregation tasks such as biotherapeutic formulation, screening of promiscuous inhibitors, and optimization of protein crystallization conditions. Measurements are performed in situ with no fluid transfer. Select from industry-standard 96-, 384- or 1536-microwell plates.

DynaPro NanoStar
Traditional dynamic light scattering, just better.
The DynaPro NanoStar operates in traditional microcuvette-based format to analyze sizes and size distributions of proteins, micelles, quantum dots, liposomes, and metallic nanoparticles. It uniquely combines two optimized 90° detections channels: one for DLS and one for static light scattering. Providing an extraordinary temperature range, the NanoStar performs robust, accurate measurements with as little as 1 µL of sample.

Mobius
Automated electrophoretic mobility measurements of proteins and nanoparticles, in all types of solvents.
The Mobius connects to an autosampler to make reliable, reproducible, and non-destructive electrophoretic mobility measurements of macromolecules as small as 1 nm in radius, as well as micron-size nanoparticles. Versatile and sensitive, the Mobius characterizes the mobility of fragile biomolecules non-destructively, at low applied voltage, or nanometer-sized inorganic nanoparticles at high applied voltage.
