Wizard Tube 
The Wizard™ Classic line of random sparse matrix screens is designed to increase your probability of producing crystals during the coarse screening phase when crystallizing biological macromolecules (proteins, nucleic acids, peptides, and combinations thereof).
The Wizard Classic reagents are proven to be a highly effective starting point in the screening of biological macromolecules. The Wizard Classic formulations include a large range of crystallants, buffers, and salts covering a broad range of crystallization space at pH levels from pH 4.5 to pH 10.5.Choose from Wizard Classic 1, 2, 3, or 4 non-overlapping formulations in matrix blocks or tubes.

Wizard Cubic LCP
The tools in the Wizard Cubic LCP (lipidic cubic phase) Kit enable researchers to prepare LCP-type crystallizations by hand. Ideal for low-protein experiments: effective protein volume for a single crystallization experiment is about 80 nanoliters. Wizard Cubic LCP Kit tools work especially well when traditional methods have failed to yield crystals. Lipidic cubic phase has worked well for the crystallization of 7TM membrane proteins (proteins with seven transmembrane helices). Four out of six GPCRs (G-protein coupled receptors), an important membrane protein class, and several microbial 7TM proteins have been crystallized using the LCP approach.

CRYO (I、II)
The Wizard Cryo™ line of random sparse matrix screens is designed for scientists who want to avoid the additional step of optimizing a cryoprotectant condition. Every Wizard Cryo formulation flash-freezes to a clear, amorphous glass in liquid nitrogen or in a cryo-stream at 100K. Crystals can be frozen directly from their growth drops, avoiding the additional step of pre-equilibration with an artificial cryo-condition that can damage the crystal. Eleven different cryocrystallants and sparing use of glycerol ensures a broad sampling of possible cryo conditions. Choose from Wizard Cryo 1 or 2 formulations in tubes or Wizard Cryo 1 and 2 together in a 96-well matrix block.

CryoTong™ – Long
ApplicationsCrystal transfer under cryo temperature
FeaturesArtery clamp style closure30 seconds of cryo temperature180 mm length
Description
The CryoTong is a tool used to manually transfer a crystal mounted on a CrystalCap™ from liquid nitrogen to a magnetic base in a goniometer head positioned in a cryogenic stream, and then back to liquid nitrogen. The one-piece, compact CryoTong is available in two lengths. The long CryoTong is approximately 180 mm in overall length. The artery clamp style maintains the CryoTong in the closed position until the clamp is squeezed, which opens the opposing heads. The heads are non-magnetic stainless steel. The handle is magnetic stainless steel. The inside of the head is machined to closely surround the CrystalCap with loop and crystal in place. A small retaining lip is machined into the lower portion of the head to prevent the CrystalCap from slipping out of the CryoTong when the tool is in the closed position. The CryoTong can maintain the temperature of the crystal at -160°C for up to 30 seconds during room temperature crystal transfers. Choose the proper CryoTong size based upon the pin length required by the configuration of the x-ray data collection hardware used. The 18 mm CryoTong (HR5-112) is to be used with the CrystalCap HT and any other CrystalCap configured for 18 mm.HR5-114 Long CryoTong 18 mm, 180° features the head in alignment with the handle of the CryoTong.

Vial Clamp™ – Straight
ApplicationsVial support and manipulation
FeaturesStraight end tipHemostat style closureDescription
The Vial Clamp™ – Straight is a chrome plated, hemostat style tool. It has a tip shaped to hold the storage vial of all the CrystalCap Systems™ straight when the clamp is closed. The clamp can be locked using the hemostat style closure. This clamp makes it easy to dip the storage vial into liquid nitrogen for crystal storage. The complete length of the clamp is straight, with an overall length of 195 mm. When the vial is placed in the clamp, the length of it is positioned perpendicular, 90° to the length of the clamp.

CrystalWand™ Magnetic
ApplicationsCrystalCap Magnetic & CrystalCap Copper Magnetic handling toolDescription
The CrystalWand Magnetic is designed to be used exclusively with the CrystalCap Magnetic, CrystalCap Copper Magnetic, and CrystalCap HT systems during transfer of the caps from the vial to the goniometer head and from the goniometer to the vial. The 6 1/2” (165 mm) long chrome plated steel wand features a plastic housing enclosing a spring tensioned plunger that when depressed, moves a non-magnetic steel platform away from the magnet housed in the end of the wand. This causes the steel CrystalCap to detach from the wand and be placed readily into the vial or the CryoTong™. When the platform is retracted, the wand securely holds the steel CrystalCap Magnetic. The CrystalWand Magnetic 45° (McMiken Tool) offers the same functionality but is bent at a 45° angle at approximately 2.5 cm from the magnet end.HR4-729 CrystalWand Magnetic, StraightHR4-315 CrystalWand Magnetic, 45° (McMiken Tool)

Vial Clamp™ – Curved
ApplicationsVial support & manipulation
FeaturesCurved end tipHemostat style closureDescription
The Vial Clamp – Curved is a chrome plated, hemostat style tool. It has a tip shaped to hold the storage vial of all the CrystalCap Systems at an angle when the clamp is closed. The clamp can be locked using the hemostat style closure. The end of the clamp, where the vial is held, is curved at either a 45°/135° or 110°/ 70° angle. When the vial is placed in the clamp, the length of it is positioned to the clamp at either of those same angles. The overall length of each clamp is the same, 195 mm.HR4-671 Vial Clamp – Curved 45°/135°HR4-672 Vial Clamp – Curved 110°/70°

Hampton PEG/Ion • PEG/Ion 2 • PEG/Ion HT

PEG/Ion, developed by Hampton Research, is a crystallization screen designed to evaluate monodisperse, high purity Polyethylene glycol 3,350 and 48 unique salts representing a very complete range of anions and cations frequently used in the crystallization of biological macromolecules. The primary screening variables are PEG, ion type, ionic strength, and pH. More than 60% of the published crystallizations utilized PEG as a primary crystallization reagent and in approximately 50% of those reports, the PEG was combined with an ion as a secondary crystallization reagent. PEG/Ion reagents are formulated without a buffer and are not pH titrated.

PEG/Ion 2 is an extension to the fundamental crystallization strategy in PEG/Ion. PEG/Ion 2 reagents cover the monodisperse, high purity Polyethylene glycol 3,350 and an array of neutralized and pH adjusted organic acids, multivalent ions, a novel Citrate BIS-TRIS propane buffer system and pH (4 – 8.8). The formulation of PEG/Ion 2 was developed at Hampton Research. Each of the 48 reagents in PEG/Ion 2 contains PEG 3,350 as the polymer (precipitant). The concentration of PEG is varied from 12% w/v to 20% w/v depending upon the type and concentration of buffer/salt paired with the polymer. Thirteen of the forty-eight PEG/Ion 2 reagents contain a separate buffer component. The remaining PEG/Ion 2 reagents are buffered by the titrated organic acid salt. Six of these thirteen conditions feature a novel Citric acid BIS-TRIS propane (CBTP) buffer. The CBTP buffer uses Citric acid and BIS-TRIS propane as the acid base pair to create a two component buffer system effective across pH 2.5 to 9.5. The ratio of Citric acid to BIS-TRIS propane determines the solution pH. Thirty-five of the forty-eight PEG/Ion 2 reagents contain a neutralized or pH adjusted organic acid in the presence of the polymer. Neutralized organic acids are highly effective crystallization salts.¹ Four PEG/Ion 2 reagents feature polyvalent cations. Two of these reagents contain cation mixes, saving sample by screening six different cations with only two reagents. Tryptone, a casein digest combinatorial library of peptides, is included in PEG/Ion 2. PEG/Ion 2 reagents 1-30, 42, 45-47 are formulated without a buffer and are not pH titrated.

PEG/Ion contains 48 unique reagents, 10 ml each.

PEG/Ion 2 contains 48 unique reagents, 10 ml each.

PEG/Ion HT contains 1 ml of each reagent from PEG/Ion and PEG/Ion 2 in a single Deep Well block format.

Ready-to-use reagents are sterile filtered and formulated with ultra-pure Type 1 water, using the highest purity salts, polymers, organics and buffers. Individual reagents are available through the Hampton Research Custom Shop.
