Abstract

A modulated differential scanning calorimeter that accounts for heat flow due to evaporative solvent loss. The calorimeter modulates the temperature applied to a sample and a reference to determine the amount of heat flow that is due to evaporation. By calculating the amount of heat flow due to evaporation, the user can determine how much of the heat flow of any given well is due to the process of interest as opposed to evaporation.
