Development of a fully automated macromolecular crystallization/observation robotic system, HTS-80.

A robotic system has been developed to be used for macromolecular crystallization and observation in typical university laboratories with a research focus on protein crystallography. The system consists of three major parts: a dispenser unit, a storage unit and an observation unit. This system is designed to automatically perform all of the processes involved in crystallization and observation without requiring any manual operations.
