Comparison of lysozyme structures derived from thin-film-based and classical crystals

A report of the systematic comparison of crystal structures produced by the nanobiofilm template method and by the classical hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method.

Investigating crystal-growth mechanisms with and without LB template: protein transfer from LB to crystal

In lysozyme crystal growth induced by a lysozyme thin-film template direct protein transfer appears to occur from the LB film into the crystal being formed, giving a possible explanation for the mechanisms involved in crystal nucleation and growth.
