• Quality control of colorimetrically stained gels and blots
  

  In the pharmaceutical and food industry, using a scanner-based system is more recommended than using a camera-based system for the acquisition, documentation and analysis of colorimetrically stained gels, blots and TLC samples. The combination of a scanner with a suitable control and analysis software is decisively for completely meeting GxP guidelines more

• Good Reasons to Use ATR Libraries
  

  Transmission spectroscopy was the only method in general use until the early 1960s. The first applications of attenuated total reflection (ATR) or internal reflection spectroscopy were reported independently by Fahrenfort and Harrick. Especially macromolecular materials (rubbers, fibers, fabrics, coatings, laminates etc), which often failed to yield useful transmittance spectra, became accessible for infrared spectroscopic investigations by the ATR technique. Meanwhile, the ATR technique has been proven to be an extremely useful technique for material analysis and has become more widely used for all but gaseous samples. more

• Do you see the complete picture?
  

  Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) or also named size exclusion chromatography (SEC) is the most often used method for determining the molecular weight of natural and synthetic macromolecules. One specific strength of this method lies in the fact that by the separation process the whole molecular weight distribution is obtained. The molecular weight distribution contains much larger information for the characterization of polymer samples compared to a single value. more

• Prediction of the concentration dependence of the surface tension and density of salt solutions: atomistic simulations with polarizable and nonpolarizable models.

  Molecular simulations using polarizable and nonpolarizable models for water and ions are carried out to predict the dependence of the surface tension on salt concentration. The polarizable water and ion models are based on the classical Drude oscillators. The temperature dependence of the surface te more
