Solubility: Importance, measurements and applications

25 Mar 2020

This application note covers two dynamic methods for effective and reproducible solubility data generation: the temperature variation and solvent addition methods. These methods can be easily applied by making use of the turbidity probes integrated in the Crystal16 and particle viewer cameras of the Crystalline instruments.

Protein CrystallographyProtein crystallization is the process of crystallizing purified proteins for 3D structure analysis by x-ray crystallography. The main methods of protein crystallization include sitting drop, hanging drop and microbatch. It is important to control parameters such as pH, temperature and concentration. Following crystallization, detectors and software are used for data collection and analysis.Solvent MonitoringScreeningUsing robotics, data processing and control software, liquid handling devices and sensitive detectors, screening allows a researcher to quickly conduct millions of chemical, genetic or pharmacological tests.CrystallizationSample ProcessingSample processing is required to prepare samples prior to analysis. Technologies used for sample processing include homogenizers, grinders, mills and mixers.
