The XtaLAB mini from Rigaku is a high performance small molecule X-ray diffraction benchtop system. With ready access to crystal structure analysis, the XtaLAB mini can handle difficult crystal samples that without compromising the sample during the analysis. Additionally, the XtaLAB mini is green-friendly as it operates at a lower power. Accompanied by a flexible software package, the XtaLAB mini can easily be read by other open source software as well. The XtaLAB mini features a sensitive CCD detector, precision goniometer, high-flux X -ray source, and the ability to ensure samples are centered in X -ray beam to assure the generation of research quality data. The “no compromise” X -ray diffraction system allows more experiments to be performed, produce better results, and predict research success.
