Several techniques are used to measure PSD, including:
- Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS): Measures the fluctuation of light scattering due to Brownian motion of nanoparticles. - Electron Microscopy: Provides high-resolution images to determine particle size. - Laser Diffraction: Analyzes the scattering pattern of laser light as it passes through a particle suspension.
Each technique has its advantages and limitations, and the choice depends on the specific requirements of the study.
