No sample preparation
Non intrusive technique
No dilution
Up to 95% v/v
From 5 nm to 1000 μm
From Backscattering easurement it is
possible to:
(135° from the light source)
Backscattering is directly related to the photon
transport mean free path. Thus Backscattering
intensity depends on particle size and concentration.

HOW IT WORKS ?
MLS consists of sending photons (NIR light source,
880nm) into the sample. These photons, after being
scattered many times by the particles (or droplets) in
the dispersion emerge from the sample and are detected by the 2 detectors of the Turbiscan™
reading head:
Transmission for non opaque samples
(0° from light source)
Backscattering for opaque samples

ACCESS TO STABILITY
This principle of measurement is used by the
Turbiscan™ in order to detect particle size change and/or local concentration change while the sample
is destabilising, this more accurately and faster than
the eye
