Jacob, I recall Dorothy Hodgkin or Guy Dodson showing a slide (mid to late 1970s) with insulin crystals having grown in the Islets of Langerhans. As you say, quite remarkable. John Prof John R Helliwell DSc On 15 Feb 2013, at 19:44, Jacob Keller j-kell...@fsm.northwestern.edu wrote:

In addition to the above mentioned references you can also see: Charcot-Leyden crystals (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6508005) and my own ( :) ) figure 1 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1618374/figure/f1/ Cheers, Artem On Fri, Feb 15, 2013 at 11:46 PM, Zhijie Li

Hi Jacob, They are not too small to mount I think, at least 20 microns long (compared to the size of surrounding cells). But what do you mean by littered? There seems to be just one cell with crystals out of say 10 expressing eGFP. And why are there only 10 or so expressing GFP out of ~200 or

Hi Jacob, Interesting topic. This reminds me the posters I saw on ACA 2010, on the femto-second infrared laser based instrument . That instrument utilizes the nonlinear optical properties of crystals of chiral molecules to detect very small crystalline materials from amorphous background:
