This paper introduces nucleation theory applied to crystallizing protein solutions. It is shown
that the classical approach explains the available nucleation data under most conditions …

Medium-sized single crystals with perfect habits and no defect producing intense and well-
resolved diffraction patterns are the dream of every protein crystallographer. Crystals of …

A rheological and interferometric study of agarose sols and gels at different concentrations is
reported. At concentrations smaller than 0.12%(w/v) agarose solutions behave like non …

Very high quality crystals of tetragonal hen egg-white lysozyme were grown in the Advanced
Protein Crystallization Facility (APCF) on board the Space Shuttle using a modified free …

This review summarizes the optical, electromagnetic, and acoustic imaging techniques that
are in use or available for mapping convection, temperature, and solute concentration in the …

The physicochemical aspects of protein crystallization in reduced-gravity environments (µg)
have been investigated with the Advanced Protein Crystallization Facility during six space …

For those seeking to model biomineralization in vitro, hydrogels can serve as excellent
models of the extracellular matrix (ECM) microenvironment. A major challenge posed in …

The step velocity on {110} faces of tetragonal lysozyme crystals has been measured in situ
by high-resolution phase contrast microscopy. The movement of the steps shows a distinct …

Many mineralization processes occur in convection-free conditions. Understanding these
processes requires knowledge of crystal nucleation and growth processes in gels or high …

ABSTRACT A simple and reliable method of measuring the refractive index of liquids is
reported in the present paper. The technique was employed to study the temperature …
