SER-CAT operates two advanced X-ray crystallography beamlines at Argonne National Laboratory:

  • 22-ID-D - Variable wavelength beamline
  • 22-ID-E - Fixed wavelength beamline

You can use our beamlines to collect structural data on your protein or molecular samples. We support both remote data collection (from your institution) and on-site visits (in person at Argonne).

For full instructions, see detailed guides linked above. If you need support or have questions, contact SER-CAT support.
