Description
The CrystalCap Magnetic is a non-threaded, 1.8 ml (approximate) cryo vial storage container with a specially engineered cap for cryocrystallography. Each cap is manufactured from an alloy base which allows the cap to be magnetically secured to a magnetic base in the goniometer head. A ring magnet is molded into the top end of the vial so that when the cap is positioned in the vial, the ring magnet holds the cap on the vial during cryogenic storage. The tip of the metal cap is ready to accept a MicroTube™ and CryoLoop™ or Mounted CryoLoop™. CrystalCap Magnetic is available with or without a vial. The vial contains two small holes for venting.

CrystalCap Magnetic ALS (HR4-779) is compatible with ALS style sample changers.

In the comparison image above, the CrystalCap Magnetic (notice ledge at bottom of taper) appears on the left while the CrystalCap Magnetic ALS (no ledge at bottom of taper) appears on the right. Both cap styles can accept and use the same CrystalCap Magnetic Vial.

Brookhaven National Lab PXRR automounter is compatible with the CrystalCap Magnetic ALS.

The automounter at the Berkeley Center for Structural Biology at Lawrence Berkeley National Labs is compatible with the CrystalCap Magnetic ALS.

ALS style sample mounters accept the CrystalCap Magnetic ALS.

The ESRF automated sample changer accepts the Hampton Research CrystalCap Magnetic with an 18 mm mounted cryoloop.
