  • Apparatus and methods for low temperature small angle X-ray scattering
    Patent number: 9927336
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for performing small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) at low (cryogenic) temperatures for determining the structure of and changes in the structure of proteins, DNA, RNA, and other biological molecules and biomolecular assemblies and structures. A cryogenic, small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) application sample holder, includes a sample cell including a base portion and at least two parallel walls disposed on the base, wherein the sample cell has a liquid volume capacity defined by the walls and the base portion of 0.001 to 10 microliters.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 4, 2013
    Date of Patent: March 27, 2018
    Assignee: CORNELL UNIVERSITY
    Inventors: Stephen P. Meisberger, Matthew A. Warkentin, Jesse B. Hopkins, Andrea M. Katz, Lois Pollack, Robert E. Thorne
