Introduction to circular dichroism
Chirascan™-plus Circular Dichroism Spectrometer
The next generation in circular dichroism
- Delivers maximum information from the minimum of sample
- Dramatically reduces the time required for high data content CD applications
- Simultaneously measures accurate CD, absorption and fluorescence data
- Unlocks the door to exciting, new protein structural measurements
Overview
Chirascan-plus builds on the performance and innovations that were introduced when the Chirascan was launched in 2004. Two years in development and testing, Chirascan-plus brings dramatic performance gains that improve productivity and sensitivity in all CD applications. It is aimed squarely at those customers with the most demanding requirements, such as biopharmaceutical research and development scientists, whose samples and time are at a premium.
Chirascan-plus unlocks the door to a whole new approach to experimental design based on high data content, fast data acquisition and small sample volumes. Applied Photophysics has developed the technique of dynamic multi-mode spectroscopy (DMS) to take full advantage of the capabilities of Chirascan-plus to deliver high-quality structural and thermodynamic data from a small sample in a single experiment.
Economy of sample, simultaneous measurement of CD, absorption and fluorescence, rapidity of data collection and powerful analytical software combine to transform the type and number of CD experiments that can be carried out routinely and easily. Chirascan-plus is an invaluable addition to the armoury of biophysical techniques used to analyze the behaviour of novel proteins.
