Today we created crystallisation capillaries tubes of lysozome at different salt concentrations.
What did we learn
Measurements must be done very carefully. It took us 3 attempts to get the correct mixtures( 20 in all).
To get protein crystallographers passionate mention
- Rosalind Franklin(The female scientist who was the first to crystallize and use x-rays to study the structure of DNA)
- Stochiometry and dimensional analysis
- 9/11 and how this means that crystals can no longer be taken on airplanes because the compulsory x-ray machines degrade the crystals.
