=== Mass photometry===
The molecular mass (m) is the mass of a given molecule: it is measured in daltons (Da or u). ... The molecular mass and relative molecular mass are distinct from but related to the molar mass. The molar mass is defined as the mass of a given substance divided by the amount of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
Mass photometry (MP) is a rapid, in-solution, label-free method of obtaining the molecular mass of proteins, lipids, sugars & nucleic acids at the single-molecule level. The technique is based on interferometric scattered light microscopy<ref>Young et al. (2018). Quantitative imaging of single biological macromolecules. Science 360, 423-427. DOI: https://doi.org/10.1126/science.aar5839</ref>. Contrast from scattered light by a single binding event at the interface between the protein solution and glass slide is detected and is linearly proportional to the mass of the molecule. This technique is also capable of measuring sample homogeneity <ref>Sonn-Segev, A., Belacic, K., Bodrug, T. et al. Quantifying the heterogeneity of macromolecular machines by mass photometry.

Quantifying protein-protein interactions by molecular counting using mass photometry. Angew. Chem Int Ed, 2020, 59(27), 10774-10779</ref>. Mass photometry can measure molecular mass to an accurate degree over a wide range of molecular masses (40kDa – 5MDa).

'{{distinguish|Molar mass|Mass number}} The '''molecular mass''' (''m'') is the mass of a given molecule: it is measured in [[dalton (unit)|dalton]]s (Da or u).<ref name="SI">{{SIbrochure8th|page=126}}</ref>{{CODATA2010}} Different molecules of the same compound may have different molecular masses because they contain different [[isotope]]s of an element. The related quantity relative molecular mass, as defined by [[IUPAC]], is the ratio of the mass of a molecule to the [[unified atomic mass unit]] (also known as the dalton) and is unitless. The molecular mass and relative molecular mass are distinct from but related to the [[molar mass]]. The molar mass is defined as the mass of a given substance divided by the [[amount of substance|amount of a substance]] and is expressed in g/mol. The molar mass is usually the more appropriate figure when dealing with macroscopic (weigh-able) quantities of a substance. The definition of '''molecular weight''' is most authoritatively synonymous with molecular mass; however, in common practice, it is also highly variable as are the units used in conjunction with it. Many common preparatory sources use g/mol and effectively define it as a synonym of molar mass, while more authoritative sources use Da or u and align its definition more closely with the molecular mass. Even when the molecular weight is used with the units Da or u, it is frequently as a weighted average similar to the molar mass but with different units. In molecular biology, the weight of macromolecules is referred to as their molecular weight and is expressed in kDa, although the numerical value is often approximate and representative of an average. The terms '''molecular mass''', '''molecular weight''', and '''[[molar mass]]''' are often used interchangeably in areas of science where distinguishing between them is unhelpful. In other areas of science, the distinction is crucial. The molecular mass is more commonly used when referring to the mass of a single or specific well-defined molecule and less commonly than molecular weight when referring to a weighted average of a sample. Prior to the [[2019 redefinition of SI base units]] quantities expressed in daltons (Da or u) were by definition numerically equivalent to otherwise identical quantities expressed in the units g/mol and were thus strictly numerically interchangeable. After the 20 May 2019 redefinition of units, this relationship is only nearly equivalent. The molecular mass of small to medium size molecules, measured by mass spectrometry, can be used to determine the [[Chemical composition|composition]] of elements in the molecule. The molecular masses of macromolecules, such as proteins, can also be determined by mass spectrometry; however, methods based on [[viscosity]] and light-scattering are also used to determine molecular mass when [[crystallographic]] or mass spectrometric data are not available. == Calculation == Molecular masses are calculated from the [[atomic mass]]es of each [[nuclide]] present in the molecule, while molar masses are calculated from the [[standard atomic weight]]s<ref>{{cite web | title = Atomic Weights and Isotopic Compositions for All Elements | url = http://physics.nist.gov/cgi-bin/Compositions/stand_alone.pl?ele=&all=all&ascii=html&isotype=some | publisher = [[NIST]] | access-date = 2007-10-14}}</ref> of each [[Chemical element|element]]. The standard atomic weight takes into account the [[Isotope|isotopic distribution]] of the element in a given sample (usually assumed to be "normal"). For example, [[water (molecule)|water]] has a molar mass of 18.0153(3)&nbsp;g/mol, but individual water molecules have molecular masses which range between 18.010&nbsp;564&nbsp;6863(15)&nbsp;Da (<sup>1</sup>H{{su|b=2}}<sup>16</sup>O) and 22.027&nbsp;7364(9)&nbsp;Da (<sup>2</sup>H{{su|b=2}}<sup>18</sup>O). Atomic and molecular masses are usually reported in [[dalton (unit)|dalton]]s which is defined relative to the mass of the [[isotope]] <sup>12</sup>C (carbon 12), which by definition<ref name="IUPAC1979">{{cite journal | author = International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry | author-link = International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry | title = Atomic Weights of the Elements 1979 | url = http://www.iupac.org/publications/pac/1980/pdf/5210x2349.pdf | doi = 10.1351/pac198052102349 | journal = [[Pure and Applied Chemistry|Pure Appl. Chem.]] | year = 1980 | volume = 52 | pages = 2349–84 | issue = 10}}</ref> is equal to 12 Da. For example, the molar mass and molecular mass of [[methane]], whose molecular formula is CH<sub>4</sub>, are calculated respectively as follows: {| class="wikitable plainrowheaders" !colspan=4|Molar mass or molecular weight of CH<sub>4</sub> |- ! !! Standard atomic weight !! Number !! Total molar mass (g/mol)<br>or molecular weight (Da or g/mol) |- | C || {{Atomic mass|C}} || 1 || {{Atomic mass|C}} |- | H || {{Atomic mass|H}} || 4 || {{Molecular mass|H|4}} |- | CH<sub>4</sub> || || || {{Molecular mass|C|1|H|4}} |- !colspan=4|Molecular mass of <sup>12</sup>C<sup>1</sup>H<sub>4</sub> |- ! !! Nuclide mass !! Number !! Total molecular mass (Da or u) |- | <sup>12</sup>C || 12.00 || 1 || 12.00 |- | <sup>1</sup>H || 1.007825 || 4 || 4.0313 |- | CH<sub>4</sub> || || || 16.0313 |} The more formally defined term is "relative molecular mass". Relative atomic and molecular mass values as defined are [[dimensionless]]. However, the adjective 'relative' is omitted in practice as it is universally assumed that atomic and molecular masses are relative to the mass of <sup>12</sup>C. Additionally, the "unit" [[Dalton (unit)|Dalton]] is used in common practice. The mass of 1 [[mole (chemistry)|mol]] of substance is designated as [[molar mass]]. By definition, the molar mass has the units of [[gram (unit)|gram]]s per [[mole (unit)|mole]]. In the above example, the standard atomic weight of carbon is 12.011 g/mol, not 12.00 g/mol. This is because naturally occurring carbon is a mixture of the [[isotope]]s <sup>12</sup>C, <sup>13</sup>C and <sup>14</sup>C which have masses of 12 Da, 13.003355 Da, and 14.003242 Da respectively. Moreover, the proportion of the isotopes varies between samples, so 12.011 g/mol is an average value across different places on earth. By contrast, there is less variation in naturally occurring hydrogen so the standard atomic weight has less variance. The precision of the molar mass is [[Propagation of uncertainty|limited]] by the highest variance standard atomic weight, in this example that of carbon. This uncertainty is not the same as the uncertainty in the molecular mass, which reflects variance (error) in measurement not the natural variance in isotopic abundances across the globe. In high-resolution [[mass spectrometry]] the mass isotopomers <sup>12</sup>C<sup>1</sup>H<sub>4</sub> and <sup>13</sup>C<sup>1</sup>H<sub>4</sub> are observed as distinct molecules, with molecular masses of approximately 16.031 Da and 17.035 Da, respectively. The intensity of the mass-spectrometry peaks is proportional to the isotopic abundances in the molecular species. <sup>12</sup>C <sup>2</sup>H <sup>1</sup>H<sub>3</sub> can also be observed with molecular mass of 17 Da. == Determination == === Mass spectrometry === {{main|Mass spectrometry}} In mass spectrometry, the molecular mass of a small molecule is usually reported as the [[monoisotopic mass]], that is, the mass of the molecule containing only the most common isotope of each element. Note that this also differs subtly from the molecular mass in that the choice of isotopes is defined and thus is a single specific molecular mass of the many possibilities. The masses used to compute the monoisotopic molecular mass are found on a table of isotopic masses and are not found on a typical periodic table. The average molecular mass is often used for larger molecules since molecules with many atoms are unlikely to be composed exclusively of the most abundant isotope of each element. A theoretical average molecular mass can be calculated using the [[standard atomic weight]]s found on a typical periodic table, since there is likely to be a statistical distribution of atoms representing the isotopes throughout the molecule. The average molecular mass of a sample, however, usually differs substantially from this since a single sample average is not the same as the average of many geographically distributed samples. === Mass photometry=== Mass photometry (MP) is a rapid, in-solution, label-free method of obtaining the molecular mass of proteins, lipids, sugars & nucleic acids at the single-molecule level. The technique is based on interferometric scattered light microscopy<ref>Young et al. (2018). Quantitative imaging of single biological macromolecules. Science 360, 423-427.

Specifically, the hydrodynamic size as related to molecular mass depends on a conversion factor, describing the shape of a particular molecule. This allows the apparent molecular mass to be described from a range of techniques sensitive to hydrodynamic effects, including [[dynamic light scattering|DLS]], [[size exclusion chromatography|SEC]] (also known as [[Gel permeation chromatography|GPC]] when the eluent is an organic solvent), [[viscometry]], and diffusion ordered [[nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy]] (DOSY).<ref>{{cite journal|author1=Johnson Jr., C.

[ 0 => 'Mass photometry (MP) is a rapid, in-solution, label-free method of obtaining the molecular mass of proteins, lipids, sugars & nucleic acids at the single-molecule level. The technique is based on interferometric scattered light microscopy<ref>Young et al. (2018). Quantitative imaging of single biological macromolecules. Science 360, 423-427. DOI: https://doi.org/10.1126/science.aar5839</ref>. Contrast from scattered light by a single binding event at the interface between the protein solution and glass slide is detected and is linearly proportional to the mass of the molecule. This technique is also capable of measuring sample homogeneity <ref>Sonn-Segev, A., Belacic, K., Bodrug, T. et al. Quantifying the heterogeneity of macromolecular machines by mass photometry.
