Crystal Dehydration

Collaboration has been established between the EMBL Grenoble, MAX-lab and Diamond to develop crystal dehydration methods to improve the diffraction quality of macromolecular crystals using the HC1-x dehydration device developed at the EMBL-Grenoble, and to extend the use of the device for modifying crystals online.

Supported dehydration experiments can be carried out at the ESRF/EMBL, MAX-lab and Diamond
