Harnessing innovative positive displacement pipetting to simplify protein crystal optimization
Rapid and accurate preparation of complex crystallization gradients and optimization screens
dragonfly crystal focuses specifically on protein crystal optimization, enabling rapid and accurate preparation of complex crystallization gradients or optimization screen, even with viscous liquids, while eliminating cross-contamination. dragonfly partners seamlessly with mosquito in the protein crystallization screening workflow, streamlining the cycle between initial ‘hit’ identification and high resolution diffracting crystals.
Faster optimization of crystal hits
Optimizing protein crystallization hits to improve diffraction can be laborious with traditional methods. dragonfly crystal delivers fast performance even at high viscosity, saving valuable research time.
Enhanced repeatability
dragonfly crystal’s automation capabilities enable crystallographers to recall, refine and repeat screens easily, freeing up research capacity for high value scientific tasks.
Walk up and use technology
The dragonfly design and dispense software allows researchers to design remotely and be ready to go in minutes. Straightforward to set up and operate, the dragonfly crystal requires only minimal training, enabling even novice users to get up and running quickly.
True positive displacement pipetting delivers exceptional accuracy
Harnessing innovative positive displacement pipetting, dragonfly crystal ® uses disposable pipettes with individual pistons to deliver exceptional accuracy and precision, irrespective of liquid class.
