Gain insights into protein and biomolecule structures at different scales using SAXS with synchrotron radiation, available thanks to our collaboration with Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste.
The Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) is a non-destructive and highly versatile standard method to study the nanoscale structure of any type of material ranging from new composite nanosystems to biological macromolecules.
The Austrian SAXS beamline at Elettra is designed for time-resolved studies on structural transitions. Several time scales corresponding to the sample can be reached: down to the sub-millisecond time region, in solutions or solid partly ordered systems containing structures of up to 100 nm in real space.
