The silver–indium system: thermal analysis, photomicrography, electron microprobe, and X-ray powder diffraction results

X-Ray Powder Diffraction Metrics

To compare sample data from x-ray diffraction a suitable metric is developed to evaluate the similarity (or dissimilarity) between samples and to compare it to a references. The methodology focuses on the d-lines and uses the intensity measurements indirectly in the algorithm. The resulting d-line distribution and summary statistics of the differences is used to establish whether a true differe...

Thermal analysis, X-ray powder diffraction and electron microscopy data related with the production of 1:1 Caffeine:Glutaric Acid cocrystals

The data presented in this article are related to the production of 1:1 Caffeine:Glutaric Acid cocrystals as part of the research article entitled "Green production of cocrystals using a new solvent-free approach by spray congealing" (Duarte et al., 2016) [1]. More specifically, here we present the thermal analysis and the X-ray powder diffraction data for pure Glutaric Acid, used as a raw mate...

Two-dimensional X-ray powder diffraction

X-ray powder diffraction on proteins

Macromolecular structures are traditionally determined by means of single crystal X ray diffraction from protein crystals of micrometer dimensions. Nevertheless, the growth of good quality single crystals can be very difficult or even impossible, especially in cases of large proteins, membrane proteins or protein complexes. Modern developments of X-ray powder diffraction have allowed the struct...

X-ray powder diffraction analysis of methionine sulfoxide

Methionine sulfoxide (MetSO, C5HnNO3S, Figure 1), a product of vegetal origin, is an amino acid similar to methionine. It is present in garlic (Sugii et al., 1964), onion (Kuon and Bernhard, 1963), nut (Kristensen et al, 1974), carrot (Alabran and Mabrouk, 1973), apple (BielinskaCzarnecka, 1963; McKee and Urbach, 1953), and banana plant (Steward et al., 1960). Recently, methionine sulfoxide was...
