Programmable Chilling Incubator Range Increases Success Rates of Protein Crystallisations

摘要

Torrey Pines Scientific announces its EchoTherm? Programmable, vibration free chilling incubators to improve the rates of success for protein crystallisations. The incubators can be programmed to vary temperatures precisely from one set point to another repeatedly in a programmed routine thus increasing the success rates of protein crystallisations. The oscillations in temperatures from one point to another have been shown to create favourable crystallisation pathways. Temperatures are settable from 4.0°C to 70.0°C. The units are Peltier-based for heating and chilling. They have no compressors or CFC's and are vibration-free making them ideal for doing protein crystallisations.
