Additive Screen Mini

1.0 mL of each 24 Additive Screen Mini reagent.
Additive Screen Mini is a kit designed to allow the rapid and convenient evaluation of 24 unique additives and their ability to influence the crystallization of the sample by manipulation of sample-sample and sample solvent interactions to enhance or alter sample solubility. The screen is designed to be compatible with most popular crystallization reagents including all reagents utilized in all of the Hampton Research screens.
Each of the additives is preformulated in deionized water and sterile filtered using a 0.2 micron filter. Recommended storage for the Additive Screen kit is -20 to 4°C. Allow the kit to equilibrate to room temperature prior to removing the cap from the tube. If reagents precipitate during cold storage, warm the tube at 37°C for up to 60 minutes and invert several times to solubilize the reagents.
The Additive Screen evaluates the manipulation factors of multivalent cations, salts, dissociating agents, linkers, polyamines, chaotropes, co-factors, reducing agents, polymer, chelating agent, polyol, non-detergent, amphiphile, detergent, organic (non-volatile and volatile) reagents.
The Additive Screen kit is to be used before and during the optimization of preliminary crystallization conditions.
Each Additive Screen kit contains 1 milliliter of 24 unique additives formulated to allow one to rapidly screen with less than 25 microliters of sample.
