Pictures of crystals from the Foundation of Science laboratory course at New York University Abu Dhabi. (a) Crystals of copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate grown at different temperatures using the evaporation method. (b) Crystals of zinc sulfate grown with or without a magnetic field using the evaporation method. (c), (d) Micro-sized crystals of lysozyme and cysteine grown via the hanging-drop method using Crystal Screen from Hampton Research. (e) Micro-sized crystals of a mixture of potassium ferrocyanide, K4Fe(CN)6, and potassium chloride. (f) Micro-sized crystals of a mixture of calcium acetate, copper(II) acetate and copper chloride. The detailed setup of the crystal growth experiments is presented in Appendix 3 of the supporting information. |
