MicroLoop™ Mounts provide a superior tool in a familiar format for manipulating and mounting protein/small molecule crystals and many other small fragile samples.

MicroLoops™ have circular sample apertures which are available in eight sizes, i.e. 20, 35, 50, 75, 100, 150, 200 and 300 μm.

Choose between two film thicknesses: MiTeGen's standard 10 μm for the lowest background scatter, and HT thickness 18 μm for improved durability and rigidity in high-throughput applications.
 



Compared with MicroMounts™, MicroLoops™ have a narrower neck connecting the crystal aperture to the base. They also do not have a wicking aperture. These features allow them to enter small protein drops with less disturbance to the drop. As with MicroMounts™, drop disturbances are also reduced by attaching the loops to solid rather than hollow nonmagnetic stainless steel rods. MicroLoops™ are slightly thicker than MicroMounts™ to increase their rigidity in the cryostream.

Compared with conventional nylon loop mounts and with competing lithographically fabricated mylar loop mounts, MicroLoops™ provide:
  • Much lower background X-ray scatter (roughly 1/3 that of mylar mounts).
  • Much more accurate and reproducible crystal positioning in the X-ray beam.
  • A more convenient and efficient scoop-like action in retrieving crystals that minimizes the chance of crystal loss or damage.
  • Excellent rigidity in the cryostream and during crystal retrieval.
MicroLoops can be cleaned using Medium or Fine liquid wicks.

Nonsaleable to USA and Japan! Please contact MiTeGen for distributor information.
