Viscosity-adjustable grease matrices for serial nanocrystallography

Abstract Serial femtosecond crystallography (SFX) has enabled determination of room temperature structures of proteins with minimum radiation damage. A highly viscous grease matrix acting as a crystal carrier for serial sample loading at a low flow rate of ~0.5 μl min−1 was introduced into the beam...
