Rigaku's BioSAXS-2000 SAXS camera is designed specifically to meet the needs of the structural biologist. In standard experiment, the intensity of scattered X-rays is recorded from biological sample in solution. SAXS is used for determination of the integral structural parameters, shape reconstruction, determination of the oligomeric state in solution, unraveling the quaternary structure of protein complexes, modeling of molecular flexibility and more. The BioSAXS AUTO configuration incorporates an Automatic Sample Changer for unattended overnight operation.
Components:
Rigaku MicroMax-007HF, rotating anode generator of Cu Kα X-ray
Confocal Max-Flux SAXS optic, specialized X-ray optic for use in SAXS applications
