Now that we have a better understanding of the
physical phenomena of light scattering, let's talk
about how these are used to create valuable data
about our biologics. When discussing the equations
that govern the ability to calculate light scattering,
we o en refer to a "particle." It's important to
remember that everything in solution scatters
light— so while, as biologics researchers, we are
generally referring to antibodies or proteins,
a "particle" can also be large buffer additives,
nucleic acids, or small molecules.
