4 What is light scattering?
In nature… red sunset blue sky and white clouds Son is very good, indeed! Theoreticals first described by Lord Rayleigh 1871 Notes: Simple questions about our everyday world, such as “Why is the sky blue?”, “How can we see clouds?”, or “Why are sunsets red?” have interesting answers that depend upon light scattering. In fact, it was the question of the blue sky and the polarization of skylight that lead Lord Rayleigh to develop a theoretical description of light scattering in 1871. When light passes through matter, most of the light continues in its original direction. However, some of the light is scattered into new directions. A careful analysis of the scattered light can yield detailed information about the scattering system.

5 MALS photodiodes Incident light Transmitted light
Using MALS we then measure the intensity of the light scattered as a function of the scattered angle. To have real-time, multiangle readings, the detector system has multiple photodiodes around the cell. Incident light photodiodes Transmitted light

7 Size/shape characterization by F4-MALS
MALS  rg or RMS – mass average (root mean square) distance of each point in a molecule from the molecule center of gravity. lower limit 10nm F4  rh or Hydrodynamic radius – radius of a sphere with the same diffusion coefficient of the sample. lower limit 1nm F4 and MALS makes a perfectly combined method for the separation and biophysical characterization of biosamples. This is because: --The RMS value, that is the mass-average distance of each point of the particle from the center of gravity of the particle, it is measured by multi angle light scattering without assumptions on molecular shape or conformation. -- The hydrodynamic radius Rh, that is the radius of a sphere with same diffusion coefficient of the analyte, is directly measured from F4 retention.

10 Amyloid-like aggregates: fungal hydrophobins
Hydrophobins are small proteins produced by fungi They self-assemble at any hydrophilic-hydrophobic interface Hydrophobins constitute amphipatic membranes Hydrophobins are interesting for medical and technical applications Hydropathy patterns can be used to divide them into classes I and II. The proteins in the two classes differ in the solubility of the aggregates that they form. Class I members form aggregates with similarities to amyloid fibrils. These properties make them a suitable “model” for studying self-assembling proteins. To reach the full potential of these proteins a better understanding of hydrophobin self-assembly process as well as of their behaviour in solution is needed.
