Abstract
Capillary Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), has recently been introduced as a simple and enabling technique that increases the measurement range of traditional DLS analysis with minimized sample volumes (Ruseva et al., 2018). The previously published protocol for the preparation of samples for analysis within a capillary called for sealing of the capillary end using a clay compound (Ruseva et al., 2019). This material is not, however, compatible with organic solvents, nor with elevated sample temperatures. To extend the uses of capillary DLS to more complex assays like thermal aggregation studies, a new sealing method is demonstrated using a UV curing compound. This further motivates the use of capillary DLS to minimize volumes of destroyed precious samples in pharmaceutical development assays to study thermal kinetics.•Use of UV curing compound to seal capillaries used in DLS to preserve low volumes of sample.
