Sedimentation velocity spins a new weave for an old fabric.

Sedimentation velocity analysis is a powerful tool for the investigation of biological macromolecules under a wide range of solution conditions. If carefully applied, it can be an effective tool for the characterization of interacting systems in solution. It is rapidly becoming a method of choice among the biotechnology community. In recent years, there have been notable advances in the ease of acquisition and analysis of analytical ultracentrifugation data.
