METHOD OF PROVIDING HIGH THROUGHPUT PROTEIN CRYSTALLOGRAPHY

摘要

The invention provides a method of performing x-ray crystallography on samples by using a robot to select the target sample, to position the sample for x-ray crystallography, and to deposit the sample, all without transferring the sample to another device, such as a goniometer. This method allows high throughput, automated crystallography, thereby providing a high volume of samples to be tested while lessening the need for human intervention.
