Nanoparticle Characterization by Nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) (CAT#: STEM-MB-0725-WXH)

Introduction

Characterization of nanoparticles in environmental samples involves determining their size, their chemical composition, and their concentrations in the bulk matrix. Environmental changes in their environment metallic nanoparticles as colloidal aggregates tend to be stable or dispersions.

Principle

Nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) is a method for visualizing and analyzing particles in liquids that relates the rate of Brownian motion to particle size. The rate of movement is related only to the viscosity and temperature of the liquid; it is not influenced by particle density or refractive index. NTA allows the determination of a size distribution profile of small particles with a diameter of approximately 10-1000 nanometers (nm) in liquid suspension.

Applications

NTA has been used by commercial, academic, and government laboratories working with nanoparticle toxicology, drug delivery, exosomes, microvesicles, bacterial membrane vesicles, and other small biological particles, virology and vaccine production, ecotoxicology, protein aggregation, orthopedic implants, inks and pigments, and nanobubbles.
