Dynamic Light Scattering: With Applications to Chemistry, Biology, and Physics

Bruce J. Berne, +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive introduction to principles underlying laser light scattering focuses on time dependence of fluctuations in fluid systems and provides an introduction to theory of time correlation functions, with chapters on projection operator techniques in statistical mechanics.

Nanoparticulate systems for brain delivery of drugs.

TL;DR: Intravenously injected doxorubicin-loaded polysorbate 80-coated nanoparticles were able to lead to a 40% cure in rats with intracranially transplanted glioblastomas 101/8, and may be especially helpful for the treatment of the disseminated and very aggressive brain tumors.

Modern analytical ultracentrifugation in protein science: A tutorial review

TL;DR: Sedimentation equilibrium of proteins, including membrane proteins and glycoproteins, is the method of choice for molar mass determinations and the study of self‐association and heterogeneous interactions, such as protein–protein, protein–nucleic acid, and protein–small molecule binding.

Size-distribution analysis of proteins by analytical ultracentrifugation: strategies and application to model systems.

TL;DR: It is shown that the least-squares approach ls-g*(s) can be extrapolated to infinite time by considering area divisions analogous to boundary divisions in the van Holde-Weischet method, thus allowing the transformation of interference optical data into an integral sedimentation coefficient distribution G(s).
