What’s New in This Release?

ROCK MAKER version 4.10 comes with exciting new features, faster performance, and better stability. This version brings back keyboard shortcut and right-click menu support from version 3. It also brings back the Graphs from Search and Filter with a cleaner and fresher look. Running an analysis of your experimental data has become so much easier. Expand the functionality of your NT8 integration with this ROCK MAKER upgrade, which now supports the dispensing of additive screens in your drops.

Graph Menu in Search and Filter

Introducing Graph, an interactive way to analyze your experimental data using filters and conditions. Looking for the screens that give you the most crystal hits? At which concentration does the protein give the best hit rate? Which ingredients are most useful and at which concentration? And which buffer pH is most effective in crystallizing a certain protein? Let the Graph help you plot your data and find out.

Note

Graph only works with the Well Drop search target.
