Combined AFM-Raman microscope, consisting of Bruker Dimension Icon and Renishaw Raman microscope, will be installed in the Nanobio CF labs during August. This unique combination extends high resolution of AFM microscopy with localization specificity of Raman spectroscopy. Complex characterization of amyloid fibers can be seen as an interesting example in this way.
In CF Diffraction Techniques, we have successfully upgraded the X-ray source of the SAXS instrument. The upgrade of MetalJet C2 to D2+ brought
more than double intensity of the primary beam. The instrument enables rapid standard SAXS measurements with a low volume autosampler, SEC-SAXS
experiments or special applications, now with substantially improved signal to noise ratio.
The Biomolecular Interactions and Crystallography Core Facility of CEITEC MU is very happy to announce the installation of a new cutting-edge instrument that will assist in the characterization of macromolecular complexes. Mass photometer TwoMP (Refeyn) is designed to precisely determine the molecular mass of proteins, nucleic acids, and other macromolecules in a broad range of sizes.
