There are increasing interest in Isothermal Titration Calorimetry (ITC) applications that require dissolving the binding partners in an organic solvent. These include studying guest-host chemical reactions, interactions involving nanoparticles, and characterizing normally insoluble materials. For successful results, the ITC experimental protocol with organic solvents requires minor modification of the normal methods with aqueous buffers. This webinar will discuss the best practices for using organic solvents with MicroCal ITC systems, including the PEAQ-ITC, iTC200, and VP-ITC. These suggestions will help improve the data quality and avoid damaging the ITC instrument.
Presenters include research scientists who routinely incorporate organic solvents in their ITC experiments, as well as ITC experts with Malvern Panalytical.
Don’t forget to bring your questions or submit them by emailing askanexpert@malvernpanalytical.com. (For inclusion in the webinar presentation, questions and data can be submitted up to 10 days upfront. There is also the opportunity to ask questions on the day.)
More information:
This webinar is part of our ongoing ‘Ask an expert’ webinar series. These live webinars are meant for students, researchers, and professors alike who want to sharpen their analytical methods, deepen their knowledge, or find out how to improve their data.
We’ll provide extensive materials analysis information and answer your most frequently asked questions. In other words, it’s the ultimate way to improve your materials science research and engineering knowledge.
It’s free to attend any of the classes. For a full overview of the 2022 program, click here.
