Analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC) is a powerful biophysical technique used to study the properties of macromolecules, such as proteins, nucleic acids, and complex mixtures, in solution. It exploits the principles of sedimentation under a high centrifugal field to provide insights into various aspects of these molecules, including their size, shape, mass, and interactions.
