Wyatt Technology has developed a static light scattering (SLS) method for measuring the second virial coefficient (A2), using its Dawn and Minidawn light scattering and Optilab Rex refractometers
The Optilab rEX is a new generation of instrument that offers a multitude of unique features.
With a combination of cutting-edge semiconductor photodiode technology and proprietary computer algorithms, the Optilab rEX presents a host of instrument firsts.
These include the ability to view the full range of instrument detection at all times.
In addition, the Optilab rEX can also measure the DN/DC of a solvent at the same wavelength of light as a light scattering instrument, enabling absolute molecular weight determinations.
The Optilab rEX can also measure the absolute refractive index of a solution - a unique option not possible with any other on-line RI detectors, according to Wyatt.
This new instrument shares the ability of its predecessor (the Optilab DSP) to reach below ambient temperatures as easily as above ambient ones.
The no-hassle temperature control can be programmed to as low as 4C or as high as 50C and is said to be compatible with all HPLC systems.
