Revolutionizing Time-Resolved Crystallography with Spitrobot Technology
Scientists in Hamburg have developed the Spitrobot, a device that simplifies observing changes in proteins and makes time-resolved crystallography more accessible to non-specialist research groups. The device simplifies the entire sample preparation process, from fixing protein crystals to cryo-trapping proteins at various stages of transformation. This innovation will accelerate fundamental research in health and disease, as it enables more research groups to conduct experiments that were previously exclusive to experts.
