EMBL Hamburg operates five beamlines for Macromolecular Crystallography (MX) – coordinated by Victor Lamzin. Beamlines X11, X12 and X13 are available for data collection. Beamline BW7B is dedicated to development of MARVIN sample changer and available for sample screening only. Beamline BW7A is currently used as a test set-up for future PETRAIII beamlines. The tentative schedule for final DORIS shutdown is towards the end of year 2012.

Ancilliary equipment available on our beamlines:
- X11: cryo-shutter for crystal annealing.
- X12: Bruker/AXS (formerly Roentec) PX-XFlash X-ray fluorescence detector.
- X13: UV/Vis microspectrophometer.
- BW7B: MARVIN sample changer for automatic crystal mounting and centering.
More details can be found on the individual beamline webpages: X11, X12, X13, BW7A and BW7B.
