This paper reveals the development and significance of size exclusion chromatograph/multi-angle laser light scattering(SEC-MALLS) for determination of the molecular weight and characterization of the molecular weight distribution. This technque has been applied in many aspects, such as biology, polymer and carboxylate surfactant. It has made a big contribution to study the property of macromolecular substances.

The specific refractive index increments (dn/dc) of inulin in water, at 25 ?C, were measured at different wavelengths (436, 546 and 589 nm) using a BP-differential refractometer. The dn/dc at the operating wavelength (633 nm) of the laser light scattering photometer was calculated by an approximate method. This value can be used to determine the absolute molar mass and the second virial coefficient of inulin by light scattering photometry.
