The Protein Crystallisation Diagnostic Facility (PCDF) offers a multi-user research facility to enable an in-depth knowledge and understanding of protein crystal growth processes under microgravity conditions without convection and sedimentation effects. The PCDF will be accommodated in the European Drawer Rack. The PCDF comprises a process unit and an electronics unit. The process unit includes a process chamber housing experiment boxes containing the reactors in which experiment solutions are hosted as well as the reactor control electronics. The experiment boxes include drive systems for the individual injection of solutions into the reactors, complemented by a stirrer for experiment solution distribution. Diagnostics are provided within the process chamber or can be installed directly in the experiment boxes. The electronics unit accommodates all the controls for performing experiments as well as the interfaces to the European Drawer Rack. 3, record 2, English, - protein%20crystallisation%20diagnostics%20facility
