Äkta Purifier for protein purification                                       Crystallisation incubator           Stereomicroscope to monitor crystal growth

 

 

After obtaining the crystals the best thing to do to collect data is to go to a synchrotron!

 

European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF)

 

European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL-Hamburg)

 

The X-ray used nowadays are mostly produced by synchrotrons.

How does a synchrotron work? Watch this video about the DIAMOND light source near Oxford (UK) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNhXAcHfdSg&feature=player_embedded
