CellCheckCSD
The Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre (CCDC) and Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) today announced that CrysAlisPro users can now perform pre-experiment reduced cell checks directly from within the popular crystallography data collection and processing software package.
CellCheckCSD, developed for automated use through CrysAlisPro, enables users to check their pre-experiment unit cell against the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD), the world’s repository of small molecule crystal structures, before collecting a full diffraction dataset. This will allow quick evaluation of whether a new crystal sample has been published before and help to identify situations where starting materials or a reaction by-product have been crystallised by accident. The aim is to avoid wasting any valuable diffractometer time due to unintentional collection of a full dataset for a known crystal structure.
