A bottle of a "Chelated Magnesium" food supplement on a few bricks.

Wow, I found brutally honest advertisement of a food supplement. Because to achieve 21% of Mg in magnesium biglycinate one indeed need to add few bricks (often contains MgO). (Theoretical max is 14.1% for anhydrous, really 11.7% for dihydrate)

Congratulations to Sam Lewis from @europeanxfel.bsky.social for winning the CCDC Chemical Crystallography Prize for Younger Scientists at #BCA2026!🎊

Sam delivered an impressive talk on exploring small‑molecule serial photocrystallography: a fantastic way to close the meeting!

Despite containing an EGF domain and forming homopolymers like urinary ZP module protein #uromodulin (PDB 6TQK), the ZPD filament resembles more closely the ZP3/ZP1 heteropolymer, whose structure we recently determined by #crystallography (PDB 8RKI, 8BQU).

Hey, @mitegen.com , I understand that “we can make custom orders”, but dimensions were in millimeters and not in inches!

Ah, sweet abandonolysis - my method of choice. Just leave your crystals under the microscope over a weekend and - disorder is gone, solvent is gone.

Humans of the past, I have an important message for you from future - on 15th April 2044 the design of the cap of the SPINE sample holder will be changed (thingy aka goniometer bases).

Indeed, dimensions were not completed.

Looks like it is a time to change wavelength from Cu radiation.
