Remember science class when you had to grow salt or sugar crystals? Remember how some people would end up with fabulous crystals, while others would end up with--well, not so fabulous crystals, all ...

Protein crystallization remains a cornerstone in structural biology and drug discovery, as its outcomes directly inform our understanding of protein structure and function. Recent advances have ...

Protein crystallisation, a cornerstone technique in structural biology, is increasingly being refined through the controlled application of external electric and magnetic fields. By precisely ...

Fluidigm's TOPAZ 1.96 screening chips employ microscale channels and valves for diffusive mixing of protein and crystallization reagents. Future chip designs will steadily increase parallel throughput ...

Our facility supports production and purification of high quantity and purity protein samples. We have instrumentation for the growth, cell harvesting, and lysis of large volume bacterial and insect ...

Engineers devised a way to purify protein drugs during manufacturing. Their approach, which uses nanoparticles to rapidly crystallize proteins, could help make protein drugs more affordable and ...

Protein cages found in nature within microbes help weather its contents from the harsh intracellular environment -- an observation with many bioengineering applications. Researchers recently developed ...

Dr. Lynch is a quantitative and computational scientist focused on applications in structural biology and image analysis. Her work focuses on how we can use imaging methods to better detect and ...

Microgravity offers a disruptive environment for drug discovery by removing convection and sedimentation. This enables higher-quality protein crystals, more physiologically relevant 3D cell cultures, ...

The following are major instruments used to provide services in the Protein and Monoclonal Antibody Production Core. AKTA pure is a flexible and intuitive chromatography system for fast purification ...

Today, crystallization is used primarily to analyze the structures of proteins. It also is gaining favor as a purification method for elastase, proteases, albumin, and lipase, in addition to ...
