Introduction
Size determination of objects embedded in highly viscous media, such as
gels, is very limited with Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS). This application
note shows how Turbiscan® technology based on Static Multiple Light
Scattering (SMLS) can easily and quickly determine the mean diameter of
objects in a highly viscous medium in a range of 10nm to 1000µm. The
example presented here, focuses on vesicles introduced into a biopolymer
gel for pharmaceutical or cosmetic application (skin application).
