Hi Horacio,
we have a Cartesian Honeybee and perform trypsin-containing trials by setting
up drops with a dedicated protein+trypsin tip, which we then wash extensively
with water, 6 M guanidinium hydrochloride, then water, isopropanol and again

Dear all
We may use a Honeybee 963 robot to screen crystallization conditions for
trypsin-containing protein samples and we are worried about robot
contamination by residual protease.
How do you normally clean robots when using this kind of sample? Your

What Jan says (in brackets) is true and very important. If you go to
great lengths finding the best robot, you might as well use the best
plates, and the MRC plates are the best by far that I've ever used.

We have been quite happy with our crystallization robot from Innovadyne. It
transfers from deep well blocks to crystallization plates, and very reliably
sets up 200nl + 200nl drops. We have tried smaller drops with decent
success, which works better with certain plates. It can be easily

What a great time in crystallization; lots of options, lots of choices.
After reviewing the automation available for crystallization and our unique
needs we decided on the Phoenix. We have used the Phoenix from Art Robbins
Instruments with excellent results since installation October 2006.

Not to inject a commercial tone, but there seems to be a bias in the
posting below. The ceramic tips are breakable, but not all find them
incredibly so. And the price is less then $300, not $700.

I was wrong on the price- yes $300/per, but still, it was a lot of money
when we had catastrophic crash several years ago (due to something going
haywire- not a script or operator error). I know the nitonol tips are
not fool-proof- they just seem a bit more forgiving than the ceramic
tips.

We chose the Phoenix crystallization robot because:
It has no expensive consumables (tips) intrinsic to the machine. This
was also a big item for us because we worry about being able to run the
machine for more than 3 years. Would the tips for our 2008 machine be

Looking at the mosquito, it doesn’t have any cover-slip handling
robotics, either. So it’s the same thing- rearrange the dispense
location and flip the cover- which is either a glass plate or mylar
or a tape seal.

I am certain that the mosquito sheets would work on any robot.

It doesn't have a cover slip flipper.
We only do sitting drops with our robot- even large volumes (2 ul
drops).
We don't have the space to store the volume of linbro plates that would

Also, 24 well linbro plates use a lot of well solution- making them very
