Measuring Molecular Properties

Jasco J-1500
Circular Dichroism

CD is used to measure protein secondary structure, and thermal and chemical stability, by detecting optical isomerism

DSF instruments
Differential Scanning Fluorimetry

DSF is used to assess thermal or chemical stability, by detecting fluorescence changes due to protein unfolding.

light scattering instruments
Light Scattering

Static Light Scattering methods (SEC-MALS, Mass Photometry) are used to measure mass and Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) is used to measure radius, in solution.

The CMI has tools to characterize the physical properties of your protein or macromolecule. These can be used to compare proteins or to optimize purification and storage conditions.
