Latest Top 10 Malvern Zetasizer Nano citations span graphite to gold, polymers to polysaccharides

Malvern, UK | Posted on August 1st, 2012

Aside from the sheer number of the publications that refer to the use of the Zetasizer Nano, it is also worth exploring how often publications that contain particle size and zeta potential data have been cross-referenced by other researchers, underscoring the significance and trust in the Zetasizer Nano by the global scientific community.

Light scattering techniques have become increasingly widespread in the academic and industrial research community in recent years. Advances in experimental techniques mean that increasingly sensitive instrumentation is available to measure ever smaller sample quantities and smaller sizes of particle and molecule.

The reach of both dynamic and electrophoretic light scattering techniques is evidenced by the large number of publications containing data from the Zetasizer Nano in support of ground-breaking discoveries, and also reflecting the public interest in understanding the safety of nanoparticles.
