It gives an answer in a very short time with small amounts of samples.

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

characterize protein sizes

It is simple to use, doesn't require a lot of sample. It gives results in a very short time.

Reliable data set.

 

Average Rating 4.0

Application Area:

Analyze the size and PDI of nanoparticles in colloidal state

As a bionanoengineer, I prepare a wide range of polypeptide based nanostructures for their biomedical applications. I have used another machine also for size measurement but this equipment is very sensitive as it can detect very minute levels of polydispersity in the sample which makes it a good equipment for size measurements.

Easy to use. Excellent service.

 

Average Rating 4.3

Application Area:

Analyze protein fiber formation and molecular weights

The instrument is very easy to set up and use. The credits from instrument purchase for attending lighting school is really helpful to master measurements.

Great product, fantastic service, amazing company

 

Average Rating 4.3

Application Area:

analyze crystallographic samples

The machine is excellent for sample characterization and intermolecular interaction assays (we work on RNA and protein interactions). The service engineers and Wyatt corporate have been outstanding and have bent over backwards to help our newly established laboratory with software, hardware, and user issues.

I would recommend this instrument as must have for full protein characterization

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

protein characterization

We are using this instrument to characterize our protein product. It is an essential tool for analytical and formulation to make decision on the go/no go project

Great and simple result giving interface

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Protein analysis prior to crystallization

Great instrument giving clear results in short time. Temp controlling makes it easy to estimate temp for crystallization and potential protein aggregation. Kd analysis helps to modify ionic strength of the buffers. Connection easy to set up to computer in case your computer crashes. Wyatt staff very helpful in troubleshooting and analysis of results. After sale care is very good. You will not be left alone after warranty expires.

Very user friendly, high-throughput size measurements

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Measure the size and temperature stability of nanoparticles

Very easy to use, you just enter a few values and make a spreadsheet with sample IDs, then press 'Go'. When you come back you have a plate full of data.

My core lab is unthinkable without Wyatt LS instruments!

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Analyze variety of protein and peptide solutions and nanoparticles

I am a Wyatt products customer since 1999, and all of them I had were of top quality

The DynaPro™ NanoStar™ II is a unique cuvette-based DLS instrument used for the analysis of proteins, gene therapy vectors, viruses and virus-like particles, promiscuous inhibitors, micelles, liposomes, lipid, and metallic nanoparticles, and more. To accommodate scarce and precious samples, specially designed quartz cuvettes afford robust, accurate measurements with as little as 2 µL of solution, while our proprietary disposable cuvettes provide comparable sensitivity with as little as 4 µL

Walk-up operation with DYNAMICS® Touch™

The NanoStar is the only DLS instrument to provide a fully integrated, walk-up measurement experience. No need to boot up your lab PC, launch the DLS software, connect to the instrument and worry about where your data files are stored. DYNAMICS Touch is an intuitive—yet capable—DLS measurement app that resides right on the NanoStar. Via the full-size touch screen display, DYNAMICS Touch guides you through the entire setup and measurement process. It tells you if the data quality is sufficient for confidence in the results, and displays them instantly. Data files and concise PDF reports can be stored on the instrument, transferred via the network or downloaded to a flash drive. You can even send the report to your phone!

Features:

  • Sensitivity: 0.1 mg/mL of 14.4 kDa lysozyme
  • Hydrodynamic radius (Rh) range: 0.2 – 2500 nm
  • Molar mass range: 300 Da – 1 MDa
  • Temperature control: heated/cooled -10 to +120°C,
  • Minimum sample requirement: 2 µL in quartz microcuvette, 4 µL in disposable microcuvette
  • Optional infrared laser wavelength to eliminate fluorescence
  • Can connect via optical fiber to a MALS detector for simultaneous online MALS and DLS measurement with size exclusion chromatography (SEC) or field-flow fractionation (FFF)
  • Touch-panel display for immediate access to data, diagnostics and settings
  • Software: DYNAMICS® analysis software offers comprehensive analysis of size and size distributions, molar mass, diffusion interaction parameter kD, second virial coefficient A2, thermal behavior Tagg/Tm/Tonset, DLS-based viscosity; full export of all results; optional 21CFR11 support for GMP

Applications:

  • Size, aggregation and stability of small molecules, peptides, proteins, vesicles, nanoparticles, quantum dots and low/sub-micron colloids
  • Protein quality control for interaction or structural studies
  • Protein and polymer weight-average molecular weight
  • Macromolecular interactions: diffusion interaction parameter kD and second virial coefficient A2 (B22)
  • Thermal onset parameters Tagg, Tonset, Tm
  • Solubility of polymers
  • Critical micelle concentration and temperature
  • Nanoparticle structure by combining MALS and DLS sizing
