Optilab rEX for refractive index measurement
Wyatt Technology, the industry leader in instruments for absolute macromolecular characterisation, announces the availability of its revolutionary refractive index (RI) detector - the Optilab rEX
Offering over 35 years of experience in the development of multi-angle light scattering (MALS) detectors, Wyatt is committed to the promotion of this ground-breaking technique to the biotechnology, chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, academic and government fields.
Light scattering is a non-invasive technique used for the characterisation of macromolecules and a wide range of particles in solution.
It provides an accessible alternative to traditional chromatography methods and presents absolute results as there is no need to refer to arbitrary standards.

FREE Ultimate light scattering instrument guide
Wyatt Technology, the world leader in absolute macromolecular characterisation, has revised the "Ultimate Guide to Buying a Light Scattering Instrument" brochure to provide a FREE abbreviated bible
The LSU is the only one of its kind, and will greatly benefit those who have recently purchased a DAWN or miniDAWN light scattering instrument.
By enrolling on this three-day course, attendees will develop their knowledge of light scattering theory and its applications, as well as meeting with others working in similar industries that also use light scattering.
This acclaimed course offers attendees three days of intensive hardware and software training at Wyatt's Santa Barbara Laboratory.
Some of the topics covered will be.
* How to analyse unfractionated samples through batch or microbatch techniques.
* How to characterise polymers and macromolecules using Wyatt Software.
* Quasi-Elastic Light Scattering (QELS) for the determination of Hydrodynamic Radius.
* Application-specific seminars covering Field-Flow Fractionation (FFF) techniques, treatment of light-absorbing and polarising samples, conjugated proteins, and much more.
* The history of light scattering and a tour of the world's most extensive Light Scattering Museum conducted and narrated by the founder of Wyatt Technology, Dr Philip Wyatt.
Geof Wyatt, President of Wyatt Technology says of LSU, "At Wyatt, we recognize that no matter how advanced and unique our light scattering instruments may be, customer knowledge is vital to ensuring our instruments are fully utilised.
By attending LSU, our customers meet the people who designed the very first commercial light scattering instruments, the people who write the software, build the hardware, and service and support the products.
In short, LSU enables our customers to gain the full potential of this technology." Seminars are held at the LSU every month.
