Using our core characterization method AF4, we probe protein therapeutic characteristics and behavior in plasma, serum and whole blood – thus providing a route to investigate parenteral drugs in its intended in vivo application in an effort to improve patient cohort selection. This in order to maximize the positive impact of the drug while mitigating…
One of the most frequent questions we get at SOLVE is if we can characterize and quantitate nanoparticles in food and cosmetic products. ”Of course we can” said our scientists, ”let’s show them!” Many consumer products contain nanoparticles – diameter 1-100 nanometers (one nanometer is 0.000001 millimeter). The most known product is probably sunsceen, where…
Having a polydisperse nanomaterial? Nanoparticles are often characterized by techniques such as dynamic light scattering (DLS) and/or imaging methods such as transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The suitability of these methods to measure polydisperse samples is sometimes questioned because they have considerable draw backs such as extreme bias towards small numbers…
At SOLVE we have developed a robust, reliable, fast and green method (no harmful chemicals or by products are generated) to accurately characterize levan with respect to molar mass and size distributions using asymmetric flow field-flow fraction coupled with online multiangle light scattering and differential refractive index (AF4-MALS/dRI) detection. Successful characterization of raw levans with…
SOLVE worked closely with Oatly (a world leading developer and manufacturer of oat based products) to develop an oat drink which can maintain a stable froth. Oatly Foamable (or iKaffe, as it is called in Sweden) is a non-dairy alternative which can be used in lattes, dark brews as well as drinking it as it…
