International Year of Crystallography

INTERNATIONAL YEAR OF CRYSTALLOGRAPHY - 100 years since Nobel Prize for X–ray diffraction

In 1914, the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Max von Laue for making the connection between X–ray diffraction angles and the size and orientation of spacing between units in a crystal. In 2014, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution proclaiming this year as the International Year of Crystallography. UNESCO and the International Union of Crystallography have been invited to facilitate this proclamation and have put together a year–long program.

CRYO SHUTTER - Annealing is a promising technique to improve poorly diffracting crystals

Cooling your sample to cryo–conditions helps protect the structure of a crystal from radiation and thermal motion. Poor cryo–cooling can increase the sample's mosaicity, leading to poor diffraction data. A brief interruption of the cryo–stream can warm then re–cool the crystal and potentially reduce mosaicity.
The Cryo Shutter, developed by Dr. Uwe Mueller, MX-Lab at BESSY-II, HZB Berlin-Adlershoto is an automated system for crystal annealing, ready for installation on Cryojet (Oxford Instruments) and Cryostream 700 Systems (Oxford Cryosystems).

Features:
• Precise interruption of the cryostream
• Reproducible crystal annealing
• Extremely fast closing and opening of the shutter prevents turbulences

THE MICRORT™ SYSTEM - Easily screen crystals at room–temperature before cryoprotecting and freezing

Room–temperature screening is especially important in protein crystallography, as many low–temperature data sets do not yield diffraction data of sufficient quality to determine a structure. MiTeGen’s patented MicroRT™ system allows you to screen your samples for improper crystal alignment due to damage or poor as–grown crystal quality before you head to the beamline. Introducing routine room-temperature screening of your crystals can easily save your experiment time, money, and effort.

Included:
• 1 MicroRT™ Tubing Kit (20 1.5” (37 mm) long clear polyester capillaries sealed at one end; Extra–keen razor blades for cutting tubes to desired length; Small tube of grease for lubricating the base)
• 1 MicroRT™ Aligner for properly setting the capillary tube over the crystal and onto the base
• 1 box of 20 Dual-Thickness MicroMounts™
• 1 pair of serrated-end tweezers

Features:
• Allows rapid screening of crystals at room temperature, to help maximize the efficiency of your crystallography pipeline.
• Easy sample mounting with little risk of crystal loss or damage.
• Easy collection of both room and low-temperature data from the same sample.
• Easy sample visualization and alignment, especially for small crystals.
• Capillary tubing is easily cut and sealed, and gives significantly less background X-ray scatter than glass capillaries.
• One size capillary fits all, and capillaries are reusable, lowering your cost per measurement.

ProtoGel (30%) - 1 Litter

37.5:1 Acrylamide to Bisacrylamide Stabilized Solution

Optimized for SDS-PAGE of Proteins (Laemmli gels)
Consistently Crystal Clear Gels, Zero Fluorescence
Stabilized for Long Shelf Life

Catalog Number: EC-890

ProtoGel-30percent-1Litter ProtoGel forms an electrophoresis matrix that is ideal for the separation of proteins and polypeptides. ProtoGel is a stabilized, ready-to-use 30% (w/v) acrylamide/methylene bisacrylamide solution (37.5:1 ratio), manufactured from the highest quality materials, from which virtually all impurities have been removed. ProtoGel has zero acrylic acid content, eliminating the fixed charges that cause band streaking. Additionally, oxidation products such as aldehydes have been removed by a selective adsorption process. Aldehydes can attack proteins, altering the structure of the sample, and thus altering Rf values. With ProtoGel, you can trust that your results will be consistent one electrophoretic run to the next.

Storage: ProtoGel is stable for 24 months when stored tightly capped in a dark area at room temperature (20°C).

ProtoGel (30%) Protocol
Measure and Mix Solutions:
The volume of ProtoGel required for gel casting solutions of any volume and acrylamide concentration may be calculated from the following formula:
Vp =(X) (Vt)/30
where:
Vp = Volume of 30% ProtoGel
X = % Monomer Desired in Gel
Vt = Total Volume of Gel Casting Solution

EXAMPLE: To make 100 ml of a 10% monomer gel, calculate the volume of Protogel to add as follows:
Vp = (10) (100)/30 = 33.3 ml

Initiate and Cast Gel:
For optimal results degas gel solution for 10 minutes under vacuum aspiration prior to innitiation with APS and TEMED. Add 1.0ml of 10% (w/v) ammonium persulfate for every 100ml of gel casting solution. Swirl gently to mix. Add 0.1 ml of TEMED for every 100ml of gel casting solution. Swirl gently to mix. Pour the solution into the gel casting cassette. The gel should begin to set in 10-20 minutes. To provide a sharp interface, overlay the gel with water saturated n-butanol during polymerization. Flush butanol away with water just before casting the stacking gel (below).

Cast Stacking Gel:
Use ProtoGel Stacking Buffer to make 10ml of a 4% stacking gel:
ProtoGel: 1.3ml
ProtoGel Stacking Buffer: 2.5ml
Deionized Water: 6.1ml
Add 0.05ml 10% Ammonium Persulfate and 0.01ml of TEMED. Gel will begin to set in 20 minutes.

SafeView™ Nucleic Acid Stain - 1 ml

photo 0020986SafeView™ products represent a new and safe class of nucleic acid stains for the visualization of double-stranded DNA, single-stranded DNA, and RNA in agarose gels; a great alternative to more expensive SYBR® Safe or toxic Ethidium Bromide from other competitors. The dyes are developed to replace toxic Ethidium Bromide (EB, a potent mutagen), commonly used in gel electrophoresis for visualization of nucleic acids in agarose gels. SafeView™ products are non-carcinogenic by the Ames-test. The results are negative in both the mouse marrow chromophilous erythrocyte micronucleus and mouse spermary spermatocyte chromosomal aberration tests.
