"The samples that we have run so far are crystals that diffracted too weakly in the past to get solutions, and now we have solutions! We are thrilled, and so are the professors who submitted these cry­stals.

I'm actually finishing up my first report this morning done with the SHINE, on a crystal that I had previously collect­ed with 45 second exposures, but recol­lected with a much better structural solu­tion at 15 second exposures! To say that I am impressed is an understatement!"

"The SHINE optic works perfectly. I measured several 5 micron thin platelets which were impossible to run on the old monochro­mator. Routine measure­ments can often be done with one minute per frame. Really nice."
