The home x-ray diffraction station for protein crystallography was purchased from financial means provided by the Grant Agency of the Czech Republic and made operational in 1998. The Department has also adequate wet crystallography suite. The station, as the single Czech facility of this type, is freely accessible also to other local research groups. The facility is frequently used for educational purposes such as demonstrations or practical courses. Form to be completed by every user: user form. |
