One of the key benefits of DLS is that it can give precise size
information via the hydrodynamic radius, or r
H
, of the sample.
This is particularly meaningful for a uniform sample of a single
particle type. Even more than this, it also tells you a lot about
relative size within and between different samples. Having
accurate r
H
values helps determine how a particle interacts with
itself. Let's take a more detailed look at the r
H
.
