Campus North
Our Soft Matter Synthesis Laboratory at Campus North serves as a service lab for industrial and academic partners, it offers its resources and proficiency to researchers seeking solutions in the field of soft matter, and thereby encourages innovation and collaboration across disciplines.
PSS Size Exclusion Chromatography
Two PSS size exclusion chromatographs with THF, DMAc or water as solvents, UV/Vis and RI detectors. Through the variety of possible solvents we can analyse complex synthetic and natural polymers as well as biopolymers and bioconjugates that usually cannot be measured in organic solvents
