Tunable Resistive Pulse Sensing (TRPS) is a true single-particle technique which uses changes in electrical current to evaluate individual particles suspended in an electrolyte solution as they move between electrodes through a tunable nanopore. Current flow is monitored, and each particle is detected as it passes through the nanopore, due to the transient change in current that is subsequently created. Physical characteristics of particles in the sample are obtained via the analysis of resulting blockades, which represent individual particles. Specifically, particle volume is directly proportional to blockade magnitude, and particle concentration is precisely calculated from the particle flow rate measured at several different applied pressures. Zeta potential is derived via measurements of electrophoretic mobility, which is calculated from the velocity with which the particle traverses the nanopore. Tunable Resistive Pulse Sensing (TRPS) is a single-particle measurement technique that generates high-resolution data on the physical characteristics of nanoparticles. Given the direct relationships that exist between blockade characteristics and physical properties of nanoparticles, TRPS enables true particle-by-particle analysis. The resulting high-resolution measurements enable you to gain deep insights on particle characteristics. Different sized nanopores are available to facilitate a range of particle sizes, from 40 nm to 11 µm in diameter, and only 35 μL of sample is needed for a TRPS measurement. With TRPS, the use of standardised calibration particles and ability to monitor the signal-to-noise ratio in real time ensures that conditions are optimised and maintained throughout the calibration and measurement process. Key features of tunable resistive pulse sensing (TRPS) showing nanoparticles passing through a nanopore (top left), signal trace with resistive pulses (top right), high-resolution particle size distribution (bottom left), and a breakdown of how each individual blockade is analysed (bottom right). Approach to size measurement: Particle size is directly proportional to blockade magnitude; each particle is measured individually. Size range capabilities: Wide size range; particles from 40 nm - 11 µm can be measured using appropriately sized nanopores. Limitations of size analysis: Different sized nanopores are needed to cover the entire size range. Resolution capabilities: Can resolve subpopulations in multimodal samples. Concentration: Calculated directly from blockade frequency, using standardised calibration particles of known size and concentration. Ease of data processing: Automated data processing with user-friendly data visualisation interface. Influence of instrument parameters/particle properties: Parameters are actively monitored to ensure they are optimised for the measurement of calibration and sample particles.
