Dear all, is anyone still using glass capillaries for crstal mounting at room temperature ??? We have a couple of them in size from 0.2 - 2.0 mm diameter and 80 mm length. I would be happy to give them away. Best, Ulrike

Dear Michael, I work with capillaries in a regular bases to grow crystal and use them for RT data collection or cryogenic temperature data collection at home source or at synchrotron sources. I like better borosilicate glass capillaries from Triana (http://www.trianatech.com/), as Patrick has

Dear All, I would be interested to learn of other crystallographers' experience in their use of glass capillaries for protein crystal growth and X-ray diffraction clarity. There are many types of glass available - quartz, soda glass, borosilicate, etc. Are there specific types which people

Hi Michael, I would recommend an alternative http://www.mitegen.com/products/micrort/micrort.shtml Traditional capillary is a pain to handle, unless you have a rock sized crystal. Good luck, Nian Huang On Mon, Nov 12, 2012 at 11:13 AM, Michael Roberts mrobert...@talktalk.netwrote: Dear All, I

Traditional crystallography is difficult to practice, unless you know mathematics, physics, chemistry, computing etc….. :-) If one need to make science with room temperature diffraction, there is know substitution to old type glass capillaries that can be properly sealed :-\ FF Dr Felix Frolow
