NanoSight Ltd, is a company which designs and manufactures Nanoparticle Analysis Instruments. The company was founded in 1999 by Dr. Bob Carr to further develop a technique he invented to visualise nanoparticles suspended in liquid. The company has since developed the technique of Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA) and they produce a series of instruments to count, size and visualise nanoparticles in liquid suspension using this patented technology.
The company’s current headquarters is in Amesbury, Wiltshire, UK near Salisbury.
NanoSight currently produce products to count, size and visualise nanoparticles in liquid suspension using ultramicroscopy.
The instruments comprise of a scientific camera, microscope and an LM12 sample viewing unit and are used in conjunction with a computer control unit which runs the Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA) software. The LM12 uses a 638 nm red laser diode to illuminate particles in liquid suspension which are held within the unit. NTA is used...
