Protein crystallisation, a cornerstone technique in structural biology, is increasingly being refined through the controlled application of external electric and magnetic fields. By precisely ...

(Nanowerk News) One of the most expensive steps in manufacturing protein drugs such as antibodies or insulin is the purification step: isolating the protein from the bioreactor used to produce it.

Conventionally, chromatography is used for protein purification, which is extremely expensive. Alternatively, the protein crystallization method could be used to determine protein structure, but this ...

Protein cages found in nature within microbes help weather its contents from the harsh intracellular environment -- an observation with many bioengineering applications. Researchers recently developed ...

The OneView ® IS camera offers the highest performance and the most rapid operation of all the fiber-coupled Gatan cameras. It is capable of displaying and saving 16 MP images to disk at up to 25 fps, ...

Engineers devised a way to purify protein drugs during manufacturing. Their approach, which uses nanoparticles to rapidly crystallize proteins, could help make protein drugs more affordable and ...
