New Crystallisation Hotel RI182 at BIOCEV

Core Facility Crystallization of Proteins and Nucleic Acids of BIOCEV introduces new crystallization hotel RI182 dedicated to low temperatures.

The new crystallization hotel RI182 from Formulatrix was successfully tested and is now ready for all users of our crystallization facility. The hotel is able to store crystallization plates at 10 °C (SBS format, or Lipidic Cubic Phase) and image them according to the pre-set time schedule in visible light, polarized light, and UV light.
