The Development of an Automated Nano Sampling Handling System for Nanometre Protein Crystallography Experiments

Docker P., Axford D., Prince M., Cordovez B., Kay J., Stuart D., Evans G., Diamond light Source, UK

As the world’s synchrotrons and X-FELs endeavour to meet the need to analyse ever-smaller protein crystals, there grows a requirement for a new technique to present nano-dimensional samples to the beam for X-ray diffraction experiments.The [...]

The Automation of Protein Crystal Presentation for X Ray Diffraction Experiments using Standing Acoustic Waves in a Microfluidic Chip Environment

Burton C., Docker P., Prince M., Leaper M., Kay J., Stuart D., Evans G., Diamond light Source, UK

As the pressure continues to grow on Diamond and the world’s synchrotrons for higher throughput of diffraction experiments, new and novel techniques are required for presenting these micron dimension crystals to the X ray beam. [...]
