QCM-D Quartz Crystal Microbalance
QSense instruments - tracking changes at the surface - are based on the patented QCM-D technique. The instruments measure in real-time the mass of molecular layers that form on the quartz sensor. Simultaneously structural (viscoelastic) properties of such molecular layers are monitored, which enables distinction between two similar interactions or observation of a phase transition in bound layers.
QSense has developed a method to evaluate the effects of surfaces and interfaces on molecules ranging from small to complex. It helps to understand the risks of alteration of the concentration or ...
The quartz crystal microbalance Omni from QSense is the new state-of-the-art instrument from the pioneers of QCM-D. The mounting of the sensor is semi-automatic and allows the highest reproducibility ...
The Explorer from QSense is a compact design QCM-D for one flow module, holding one sensor. It is temperature controlled and samples are introduced by using a peristaltic pump included in the system. ...
The Analyzer from QSense can measure four samples at the same time: it´s chamber platform holds four flow modules for higher sample throughput. It is temperature controlled and samples are introduced ...
PRO is the high-end QCM-D surface analysis equipment. It is an intuitive instrument and software platform that senses mass change, layer thickness, binding and molecular orientation at the nano-scale. ...
For the E-series instruments from QSense there are several modules to combine QCM-D with other techniques such as electrochemistry, ellipsometry and microscopy. Additionally 40 different sensor ...
