Abstract
The size distribution for systems with Smoluchowski aggregation kinetics is shown to have the dynamic scaling form , with and . This gives a light-scattering intensity , and an effective hydrodynamic cluster radius , where is the cluster fractal dimension. We find that human immunoglobulin (IgG) monomers exhibit Smoluchowski aggregation kinetics with , and , upon heating to 47-62°C.
