Abstract:
1. A dynamic light scattering (DLS) apparatus for assaying multiple sample solutions simultaneously, said system comprising: a computer; a carousel housing comprising a plurality of containers for holding a plurality of sample solutions a light source interior to the carousel that delivers incidental light to a side of each container of said plurality of containers simultaneously to produce scattered light that exits out of the side of each container; a display; a plurality of detectors each arranged so as to sense light scattering of said multiple samples, wherein said scattered light that exits out of the side of each container is detected simultaneously, wherein the plurality of detectors are placed to detect the scattered light at a scattering angle between zero and ninety degrees; a first program code module for directing said computer to initiate lighting said multiple samples; a second program code module for measuring light scattering from said cell and processing light scattering signal into DLS data; a third program code module for directing said computer to process DLS data of individual samples into relative or absolute analyte concentration information; and a fourth program code module for directing said computer to display said information on a display device, wherein said DLS data is obtained from two or more samples of said multiple samples simultaneously.
