I think this is probably one of the coolest things we're doing on the #beamline. We use a droplet injector to fire picolitres of liquid at our fixed target mounts (which contain thousands of #protein #crystals). We then collect #diffraction data a different delay times so we can make a #MolecularMovie of the reaction happening in real time.
The video is from a fast camera and is slowed down 75 times and the picture shows the actual setup.
