The JBS Crystallization Freshman Kit - Scholar is the extended version of our JBS Crystallization Freshman Kit - Junior. It is addressed to newcomers in the field of protein crystallography who are interested in a rather extensive screening of one or more proteins, peptides, nucleic acids or macromolecular complexes in order to grow single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction analysis.

The JBS Crystallization Freshman Kit - Scholar contains the required material for crystallization screening using the "Hanging Drop Method":

• forty 24-well crystallization plates
• 1000 thick siliconized cover slides
• five JBScreen Classic Kits, each containg 24 reagents at 10 ml
  • JBScreen Classic 1 (PEG 400 to PEG 3000 based)
  • JBScreen Classic 2 (PEG 4000 based)
  • JBScreen Classic 4 (PEG 5000 MME to 8000 based)
  • JBScreen Classic 6 (Ammonium Sulfate based)
  • JBScreen Classic 7 (MPD based)
  • a detailed User Guide

If you are new in the field of macromolecular crystallography we recommend to read the background information before starting the experiment.
