Protein Crystallization Facility
Facility Description
Each Handheld PCF Assembly consists of 35 1 ml sample bottles (5 stacks of 7). Each stack is secured to the Handheld Assembly cap which will provide a conductive path through each of the sample bottle. The Container along with the sample bottles provides three levels of containment for the sample solutions. Each Handheld PCF is approximately 8.2 inches by 4.2 inches in diameter (1.9L).
