Diana, We already got a new Art Robbins Phoenix crystallization robot recently and very friendly as time consuming per plate is concerned. Theoretically your strategy of aspirating one sample enough and dispensing into several 96 well plate is feasible. However it should depend on the protocol

[ccp4bb] New Device for Crystal Diffraction Improvement by Dehydration

Dear Colleague, At the Grenoble Outstation of the EMBL we have been developing a humidity control device (HC1) used to improve the diffraction quality of crystals. This device can be easily placed on a home source setup or a synchrotron beamline. It has been tested with numerous crystals and

Dear Diana, I have adopted this method, and for the reasons your users suggest, here at Manchester and do not observe any clogging of the nano probe due to evaporation. The computer interface does complain that there is no protein solution aspirated after the initial run but this is not a

Hi: If anyone needs EDEN (Abraham and Hanna Szöke's density modification program), the original edencrystallography.org site is gone. As a quick remedy, I've created (with their permission) a google-code page here: http://code.google.com/p/edencrystallography/ The code is GPL-ed, fwiw.

Hi Tassos, It'll take more than a cable: the signal voltage changes from 12V to 5V (or vice versa, I forget). I've never seen any info on building a step-down transformer or aomplifier to address the issue, but for ~$200 USD, it's probably easier just to buy a new emitter. Cheers, Warren

You need to run source /sw/bin/init.sh if you use bash or zsh or source /sw/bin/init.csh if you use tcsh. this will automatically set up the environment variables and then it will do what you want it to (which is to set up the ccp4 environment according to whichever shell you might be
