Regarding to amount of material loaded, I think it may also depend on the buffer. When I did light scattering experiment with membrane protein at angle of 90 degree, I got much better base line with buffer containing DDM than one containing OG. This maybe due to high concentration of OG required I

And as others have said shedding of dextran is a problem with GE columns (this was confirmed to me by GE people), but after extensive system equilibration, we do not see a problem significant enough to ever hurt our light scattering measurements. Engin On 3/8/11 10:38 AM, Engin Özkan wrote:

they buy it from some small company, idea being the applicability to SLS, optimized for minimized bleeding/sheding or material from the column, which will show up only in the light scattering detector. I don't know. Every single spec of Wyatts columns looks exactly the same as "Bio SEC-5" serie

I should say clearer that I did a comparison between GE (Superdex 200 10/30) and the Wyatt column of the same separation range on AKTA connected with MALS. The Wyatt column gave better resolution for size exclusion chromatography as well as signal-noise ratio for light scattering. So I think it is

Hi Sebastiano, we have used both silica based and superdex columns and we found the second as a better option for general usage. Most of our proteins are on basic buffer and about 50% of them stick on the silica based column. On the other side a superdex 200 10/30 from GE performed quite well,

Dear all, I was wondering if somebody could help me out by suggesting the "best" column to be used in a Static Light Scattering (I guess it would be the same for a Multi Angle Light Scattering) instrument. We were suggested using a silica-based column, with very high separation properties, but i
