Rigaku Protein Crystallisation Plates
Rigakus CombiClover protein crystallisation plates utilise a patented sitting-drop well design. This design incorporates a central reservoir that is connected to four satellite drop chambers via dedicated vapour diffusion channels to create a novel combinatorial crystallisation clover. The unique design enables four different crystallisation experiments to occur within each clover, providing maximum efficacy and conservation of crystallisation solutions.
CombiClover 4 Chamber
The CombiClover 4 Chamber crystallisation plate utilises four partitioned reservoir chambers in the place of one central reservoir. These four partitioned chambers are each connected to a satellite drop chamber via dedicated vapour diffusion channels to create a variation of crystallization clover. Each plate has 24 of the partitioned reservoirs and 96 flat-bottom sitting drop chambers. This design allows four different experiments to be conducted in each clover and allows them to be investigated simultaneously.
Features
- Plate dimensions – 112.0 mm x 165.0 mm x 24.0 mm
- The capacity of each of the four partitioned areas of the reservoir is 250 µL
- The satellite drop chamber volume is 50 µL
CombiClover 1500
The CombiClover 1500 crystallisation plates offer the exact same design and utility as the CombiClover 500 crystallization plates, but offer larger capacity in the reservoir and drop chambers.
Features
