2025 NanoNews: QCM-D Edition Q4

Welcome to the quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) edition of the Nanoscience Instruments newsletter, nanoNews. We are excited to share the latest updates from around the QCM-D community with you! 


In this winter newsletter, you will find recent webinars and blogs that highlight use cases of QSense instruments across a variety of industries and research applications. Additionally, you can find information about our 2-day QCM-D short courses in Alexandria, Virginia.  

If you are interested in more regular updates about QSense QCM-D news, we invite you to follow us on LinkedIn as well!

Nanoscience Analytical has a wide range of QCM-D instruments and a fully-equipped lab for contract surface science projects. We encourage you to contact our team of research scientists to discuss your application and determine the best path forward. Build your model system with over 100 sample surfaces and gain a better understanding of the molecular interactions taking place.


What are the Key Applications of QCM-D?

Quartz Crystal Microbalance with Dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) has revolutionized surface science by enabling real-time analysis of molecular interactions. However, traditional QCM-D workflows often involve time-consuming manual processes that introduce variability …

Ten Factors that Influence the Cost of QCM-D Systems

Quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) instruments are powerful tools for real-time, label-free analysis of molecular interactions on a surface in a liquid environment. QCM-D systems can quantify nanoscale …


Predicting Solution Behavior: Insights into the Developability of Biologics

Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are widely used in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries due to their high target affinity and specificity. Successful therapeutic mAb candidates must exhibit optimal manufacturability, stability, and …


We are excited to announce that we are hosting a comprehensive, 2-day QCM-D training course at our lab in Alexandria, Virginia this February!

This course is designed for both new and experienced users of QSense instruments looking to improve their experimental design, instrument handling, and data interpretation skills. Led by our team of QCM-D experts, the program blends lectures, live demonstrations, and guided hands-on lab sessions.

Seats are limited to ensure direct access to instructors and hands-on time with the instruments, and spots are reserved on a first-come-first-served basis.
