This article describes protein crystallization under the influence of an electric field using a sitting-drop and vapor-diffusion experimental setup.

A device has been developed to optimize crystal-growth conditions by experiments in a single drop.

A new crystallization system is described, which makes it possible to use an evaporation-based microfluidic crystallization technique for protein crystallization. Using this method, crystal growth could be improved so that approximately 1 mm-sized lysozyme crystals were obtained more successfully than using standard methods.

An X-ray compatible microfluidic platform for protein crystallization facilitates in situ Laue diffraction in serial crystallography.

Microfluidic crystallization using the Crystal Former improves the identification of initial crystallization conditions relative to screening via vapour diffusion.

A straightforward low-cost device with a specially engineered multi-channel tip allows the dispensing of very small volumes of viscous lipidic cubic phases (LCPs) more efficiently. The device lowers the threshold for LCP crystallization of membrane proteins/peptides

An X-ray compatible microfluidic crystallization platform enables in situ time-resolved serial Laue crystallography.

An innovative microfluidic design (ChipX3) is described for simple biomacromolecule crystallization by counter-diffusion, allowing semi-automated structural analysis by serial crystallography at room temperature. The functionalities of ChipX3 are demonstrated using case studies leading to high-resolution structures of four proteins and an RNA.

The Nextal crystallization device was modified for checking the diffraction quality of protein crystals in the crystallization drop in situ.

A device for automated cleaning of piezo-actuator-driven picolitre-droplet dispensers required for the liquid application method for time-resolved analyses is presented.
