Scope: | This protocol describes the measurement of zeta potential for nanomaterial samples in aqueous solutions. Particle surface characteristic s and charge play an important role in the particle’s physical state, stability in different media, agglomeration tendencies, and interaction with biological systems. Zeta potential measurement provides an indirect measure of the netcharge and as a tool to test batch-to-batch consistency. |
