Minstrel HT UV
The Minstrel HT UV was the world's first fully automated high-throughput ultraviolet and visible crystal imaging and protein crystal monitoring system.
This robotic instrument is a major advance over previous visible light microscopy technology because its UV technology can find crystals in complex drops and easily distinguish protein crystals from non-protein crystals (such as salt).
The Minstrel HT UV provides unattended image acquisition, providing an objective history of the experiment. A fully integrated system for temperature controlled incubation, inspection, and analysis of protein crystallization plates, each installation is comprised of one Minstrel HT UV imaging station and either one or two Gallery™ HT incubator storage systems.
The Minstrel HT UV provides the highest optical resolution for combined visible and UV spectrum imaging and employs a 5.0 Megapixel CCD and a single optical train with custom optics and superior optical quality. This allows users to detect crystals where visible imaging falls short.
This modular platform is unique in its ability to support two independent incubators, each operating at a different temperature. Maximally configured, each Minstrel HT is capable of controlling and tracking over 1000 plates (1380 low profile).
