Studies on the Small-Angle X-Ray Scattering of Polyvinyl Alcohol

Application of small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) for differentiation between normal and cancerous breast tissues

ABSTRACT Background: Coherent scattering leads to diffraction effects and especially constructive interferences. Theseinterferences carry some information about the molecular structure of the tissue. As breast cancer isthe most widespread cancer in women, this project evaluated the application of small angleX-ray scattering (SAXS) for differentiation between normal and cancerous breast tissues....

Small angle X-ray scattering studies on myosin.

Small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) is a potentially powerful method for obtaining structural information from biological molecules in solution. The use of this technique in the laboratory has hitherto been limited by the long exposures necessary to obtain patterns on photographic film. Multi-wire area detectors, due to their high efficiency and absence of noise, enable patterns to be collected...

Small-angle X-ray scattering studies on the X-ray induced aggregation of malate synthase.

Malate Synthase, Small-Angle X-Ray Scattering, X-Ray Induced Aggregation, Computer Simula­ tions, Models for the Aggregation Process Malate synthase undergoes an X-ray induced aggregation which can be monitored in situ by small-angle X-ray scattering; the analysis of scattering curves, taken at subsequent stages of aggregation, has led to the establishment of a tentative model for an aggregatio...
