NanoSight Limited, the nanoparticle charactersation company, has announced significant software advances for their family of instrumentation. These advances provide particular benefits to users to improve the validity of their measurements. Improvements include: NTA 2.0 now analyses particles as they are detected, eliminating the need to record for post experiment analysis thus speeding use and repeatability; Extended Dynamic Range is achieved through the interleaving of alternate video frames at high and then low gain settings will help users track large and small particles in the same sample, thus greatly increasing dynamic range; and the 3-D Diameter Scatter Plot shows diameter plotted against scatter intensity to both boost resolution and provide a capability to differentiate similar sized particles when they are of differing materials.
