SONICC® - Protein Crystal Detector

SHARE
The ultimate imaging technology in visualizing protein crystals, Second Order Nonlinear Imaging of Chiral Crystals (SONICC) definitively finds crystals buried in precipitate or submicron crystals naked to the eye. Two powerful technologies, Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) and Ultraviolet Two-Photon Excited Fluorescence (UV-TPEF) are combined together in a completely automated imager to quickly image your high throughput crystallization plates and positively identify protein crystals. Crystals appear white against a stark black background, helping you to identify crystals even in murky environments. SONICC can detect extremely thin crystals, microcrystals <1 μm, and crystals obscured in birefringent LCP. Major pharmaceutical and academic research labs worldwide find SONICC to be extremely successful, cost-effective, and efficient.

Computer Requirements

The standard SONICC controlling computer offered with the instrument supports imaging with continuous multiple focus level imaging (z-slicing) and processing of all images.

SONICC uses the ROCK IMAGER control software which operates with 64-bit Windows 10 or 64/32 bit Windows 7.
