A nice new tool to try

Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) provides easily manipulable neutron contrast variation that has been widely exploited to study the structure and function of biological macromolecules and their complex in solution. Here, we developed a method called DENSS-Multiple based on the DENSS (DENsity fr...
