Q3 system

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

The Q3 system is a laboratory equipment product offered by Merck Group. It is a multimodal characterization system designed for the analysis of the size, charge, and stability of particles and molecules in solution. The core function of the Q3 system is to provide accurate measurements of these physical properties using advanced techniques such as dynamic light scattering and electrophoretic light scattering.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
