X-ray crystallography is a powerful non-destructive technique for determining the molecular structure of a crystal. X-ray crystallography uses the principles of X-ray diffraction to analyze the sample ...

The global oil trade is a complex and highly lucrative industry that relies on accurate analysis of crude oil samples. Ensuring the quality, origin, and authenticity of oil samples is crucial for ...

In this interview, AZoM talks to Daniel Brau, Managing Director of Photonic Science, about the working principles of diffraction Laue cameras, and what makes Photonic Science's Laue crystal ...

Photograph 51, the famous X-ray diffraction image of DNA taken by X-ray crystallographer Rosalind Franklin and Raymond Gosling in 1952, was a key piece of data that lead to James Watson and Francis ...

The Materials Research X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) Facility at the University of Colorado Boulder provides cutting-edge capabilities for probing the structures of materials such as polymers, biological ...

POSSIBILITIES for X-ray crystal structure analysis of proteins are limited by the minimum spacings observed in diffraction. For many proteins, the minimum spacing is about 2.5 A.—a limit which does ...

X-ray techniques have been used for decades by authorities to prevent crime and keep people safe. Perhaps their most well-known use is for the detection of dangerous and banned items or substances, ...

Our analytical XRD instrument utilises X-ray radiation to investigate the structure of crystallised biomolecular assemblies through X-ray diffraction (XRD). X-ray radiation is a type of ionising ...

X-ray crystallography, like mass spectroscopy and nuclear spectroscopy, is an extremely useful material characterization technique that is unfortunately hard for amateurs to perform. The physical ...

Lab scale: Members of Ashley Bucsek’s group can now use three-dimensional X-ray diffraction to study polycrystalline materials on campus, whereas they would previously only have been able to do this ...
