Room 101260
Introduction to SEDNTERP(suitable for novice AUC users) and its use for calculating:
- solvent density, viscosity, and refractive index
- sample partial specific volume, hydration, and specific refractive increment (dn/dc)
- standardized sedimentation or diffusion coefficients (s20,w or D20,w¬) from raw experimental values
- sedimentation or diffusion coefficients extrapolated to zero concentration, and their concentration-dependence coefficients ksand kD
- hydrodynamic parameters from SV or diffusion results:
- anhydrous sphere radius, and corresponding maximum possible sedimentation and diffusion coefficients
- sample frictional coefficient, f/f0 ratio, and Stokes radius
- sample overall hydrodynamic shape and hydration characteristics (max hydration, Perrin P function, actual molecular size and shape for ellipsoid or cylinder models)
