CALL FOR ESRF SYNCHROTRON BEAM TIME WITH ONLINE
DEHUMIDIFIER AT BEAMLINE ID14-2
********************************************************
Proposal Submission Deadline: 20th July 2009
Beamtime will be available in two periods of three days, from the 5th to
the 7th September and the 28th September to 1st October 2009 at the ESRF
for MX data collection (beamline ID14-2) with a device that allows
precise control of the humidity of the crystal prior to X-ray
diffraction experiments. The device (EMBL HC1b) provides a room
temperature humid airflow with adjustable relative humidity [50- 99 %].
Many crystals have been shown to improve their diffraction properties
upon dehydration. The machine control software is connected to the host
beamline to run dehydration protocols while taking X-ray diffraction
images automatically. Users are encouraged to consult the web pages for
detailed information
(http://www.esrf.eu/UsersAndScience/Experiments/MX/About_our_beamlines/ID14-2/HC1b).
Users who are interested in using this beam time (including those who
are members of BAG Groups) should use the following mechanism:

Please also send the submission form that can be found in
http://www.esrf.eu/UsersAndScience/Experiments/MX/About_our_beamlines/ID14-2/HC1b
Please specify in the TITLE OF THE PROPOSAL that the dehumidifier
is necessary for the project. 24 hours will scheduled for each project.
The deadline for this specific application is 20th July 2009.
