The Spitrobot

Caption

The Spitrobot is a technology developed by researchers in Hamburg, Germany, which greatly simplifies observing changes in proteins as they carry out their functions. This makes time-resolved crystallography accessible for non-specialist research groups, as samples can now be prepared in standard labs and processed by automated established high-throughput methods elsewhere.
