Agilent PX Scanner In-Situ X-ray Diffraction Data Sheet

The PX Scanner is a revolutionary product from Agilent Technologies designed specifically for the identification and X-ray diffraction analysis of protein crystals in-situ within multi-well crystallisation plates. The PX Scanner is unique in being both an optical and an X-ray imager in one compact self-contained unit. The optical imaging component allows the user to visually locate and select objects which can then be studied by X-ray diffraction using the built-in microfocus X-ray source, optics, and CCD detector.
