Abstract :
The measurement of light scattering is a well established scientific method for the analysis of particle sizes in macromolecular solutions. The spectrum of applications reaches from physics, over pharmacology, molecular and cell biology, immunology right up to environmental research. The underlying principle of this approach is the extraction of spectral information from light scattering using correlation techniques. The system at present, in the phase of design, represents a novel FPGA based real-time multi correlator system for multi angle dynamic and static light scattering experiments
