Summary
(1) High flux mode for integrated measurements of SAXS/WAXS/UV-Vis-absorption/Refractive-index/Multi-angle-light-scattering (MALS) with an online high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) instrument, suitable for exploring biomacromolecular solution structures of a wide length scale and structural kinetics down to microsecond time scale.
(2) Ultra SAXS (USAXS) mode for resolving hierarchical structures of bio-machinery assembly up to a few um length scale.
(3) Anomalous SAXS mode for metal or mineral distributions (including calcium) in bio organelle or drug carriers. 
(4) Microbeam SAXS/WAXS mode for structural mapping of the textures or specific infected cells in natural/synthetic bio-tissues, organelles, or biomaterials.
Scientific Breakthrough
