ROCK MAKER® provides users the ability to:
- Design and Manage Experiments with Ease
- Screen your proteins against sparse screens
- Screen Experiment Wizard makes experiment design a breeze - creating multiple screen experiments for one or more proteins takes less than a minute.
- Most commonly used screens come pre-loaded
- Unique barcodes allow you to track your experiments from dispensing to imaging and scoring
- Dynamically and Efficiently View & Score Images
- Images taken by ROCK IMAGER are collected by ROCK MAKER
- Measure crystals and add notes directly to the image itself
- Bring out details of your images using the leveling histogram optically zoom in with a Region of Interest (ROI).
- Navigate through and score your images using your keyboard and customizable scoring schemas
- View up to four drops simultaneously or compare different inspections of the same drop
- View images with multiple modes including slideshow & full-screen
- Automatically Score Your Drops with MARCO
- One bottleneck to protein crystallography is manually scoring those protein drop images, which is often very time-consuming and tedious.
- MARCO is now integrated in ROCK MAKER and can automatically score your drops with just a few clicks.
- Zero in on the Optimal Crystallization Conditions
- Perform a quick multidimensional optimization of various conditions, varying concentrations and pHs of the ingredients along rows, columns, and/or quadrants within a plate
- Yield protein crystals from conditions that initially do not look promising with Iterative Screen Optimization (ISO)
- Generate fully randomized optimization screens based on promising conditions of your choice
- Analyze Your Data to Improve Future Experiment Design
- Use Search and Filter to mine your data to uncover trends based on a variety of parameters, helping you to continue your research efforts and focus in on conditions likely to grow bigger and better crystals
- Create and manipulate charts to visualize your experiment results
- Print various experiment reports for your lab notebooks
