six different solutions can be selected using an eight-port rotary valve. Sixteen crystallizations can be performed in a 4 x 4 array. Protein crystals are prepared on two types of multiwell vapor diffusion plates that are compatible with either hanging-drop or sitting-drop methods. ICN Biomedicals • 408

Rapid quench flow analysis The RQF-63 rapid quench flow analysis system is designed for continuous or in­ terrupted flow modes of operation. The system includes a biocompatible thermostatted flow circuit and an electronic con­ trol unit that determines the volume and flow rate of reagent solution delivery for incubation times of 3 ms to 100 s. Sample and quench solution syringes are driven by a stepper motor with a bipolar drive. For continuous-flow reactions, the quench solution can be delivered via loops of vary­ ing size mounted on interchangeable car­ tridges. In interrupt mode, the reagent solutions are mixed together and held in the loop for an interval set by the control­ ler before the drive empties and quenches the reaction volume.

MS instruction Brochure describes two training courses in MS. "Interpretation of Mass Spectra" discusses the interpretation of EI mass spectra, instrument components, inlet systems, ion sources, mass analyzers, and modes of operation. The package contains four audio cassettes and a workbook. "In­ troduction to Mass Spectrometry" is a two-cassette video course that includes demonstrations of lab problems and pro­ cedures, close-up views of instrument components, and animated graphics.

X-ray imaging camera The X-ray Imager is designed for highresolution white light and monochro­ matic X-ray video imaging applications in crystallography, microradiography, and interferometry. Materials science applications include phase transition studies, imaging of lattice defects, and tomography. The instrument is composed of a CCD camera fitted with an X-ray scin­ tillator and is coupled to an image in­ tensifier via a coherent fiber-optic coupling. Interchangeable input scintil­ lator cartridges are available in a range of sizes with corresponding fiber-optic connectors for the CCD chip and im­ age intensifier. Input image sizes range from 12 to 150 mm on the diago­ nal; resolution ranges from 150 μπι for large-area versions of the camera

system to < 18 μΐΒ for high-resolution versions. The research version of the instrument includes a replaceable light barrier window and has an optical res­ olution of 680 horizontal lines. Software that operates in a Win­ dows-like environment is available for image acquisition and manipulation.
