What is dynamic light scattering?

Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) is an analytical technique used to determine the size distribution of small particles or molecules in suspension or solution. By measuring the fluctuations in light intensity scattered by particles as they undergo Brownian motion, DLS can provide valuable information about particle size, distribution, and aggregation state. This technique is commonly used in fields such as chemistry, biology, and materials science to characterize nanoparticles, proteins, polymers, and other colloidal systems.
