Mosimann Laboratory

Facility Tour: Crystal Lab

This laboratory is dedicated to the production of protein and nucleic acid crystals prior to their use in X-ray crystallographic studies. Single crystal, X-ray diffraction studies generate atomic resolution structures or pictures of objects as small molecules.

This laboratory includes a Crystallization Robot (Glison 945) for large-scale crystallization screens and all facilities for vapour-diffusion, dialysis and batch (under oil) crystallization. It also includes facilities for freezing and storage of crystals (N2(l)).
