Unraveling the complexity: Advanced analysis of polymeric nanostructures

Supramolecular structures formed from bioactive and responsive polymers can be used as smart carrier systems for enzymes or drugs. Given the inherent heterogeneity of these complex nanostructures, their characterization is a significant challenge.

In this exclusive webinar, join experts Dr. Susanne Boye and Dr. Robert Mildner, to learn more about asymmetric-flow field-flow fractionation (AF4), a versatile, state-of-the-art separation technique for simplifying sample matrices, enabling subsequent microstructural analysis. Coupled AF4 with multiple online detectors (multi-angle light scattering, dynamic light scattering, differential refractometer, UV/Vis and differential viscometer) provides rich data for multidimensional characterization and correlation.

The MD-AF4 analytical platform supports in-depth physical and chemical understanding of natural and synthetic macromolecules, their self-assemblies and bioconjugates. Dr. Boye and Dr. Mildner will discuss MD-AF4 and its applications to polymer-protein hybrids, exosome-polymer-hybrids, stimuli-responsive polymeric vesicles and single chain nanoparticles.
