Isothermal Titration Calorimetry (ITC) System:

Isothermal Titration Calorimetry (ITC) System
The Isothermal Titration Calorimetry (ITC) technique is used in the study of molecular interactions. It can directly measure the heat released or absorbed during a binding event, and facilitates direct, label free and in-solution measurements of binding parameters like stoichiometry, binding constant, and changes in enthalpy and entropy through a single experiment. This system works with high sensitivity and requires low quantity of sample. It also has automated washing modules for cleaning of cell and syringe.

Make & Model : Malvern Panalytical Limited ,MICROCAL PEAQ-ITC.
