Measuring size, concentration, and zeta potential of LNPs with the DynaPro ZetaStar
3 Feb 2025Microfluidic formulation of RNA-containing lipid nanoparticles (LNP-RNA) is a common means of developing and producing this important non-viral modality of gene delivery. A key challenge during formulation is the selection of the specific lipids and formulation conditions to achieve the desired particle sizes and surface potential. Discover how by using the DynaPro™ ZetaStar™ instrument, researchers can rapidly characterize size, polydispersity, and zeta potential, comparing outcomes from two LNP formulation techniques to optimize efficiency and performance.

Particle CharacterizationParticle characterization instruments are used to determine particle size distribution, shape, surface area, zeta potential, density and porosity of particles and materials. Multiple tecchniques are available for determining particle size, shape and count including dynamic light scattering (DLS), laser diffraction, electrozone (Coulter technique), imaging particle analysis and single particle optical sensing. Determine the density of your material with a gas pycnometer or examine its surface area and porosity with gas adsorption analyzers and mercury porosimeters. Find the best particle characterization instruments in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.
