SMART X2S Automated Structure Determination

The SMART X2S features a user-friendly touch screen interface that guides intuitively through the 3-D structure determination process. Its software combines an expert knowledge of structural chemistry with the power of industry-standard APEX2 data processing engines for structure solution and refinement. In consequence, the SMART X2S software automatically determines the structure of most routine samples.

In fact, when applied to an extensive library of over 2,000 real-world samples compiled at the University of Durham, the SMART X2S automatically determined the correct structure in over 90% of the cases.

In those challenging cases where crystallographic structures are not solved automatically (such as twinned crystals or disordered structures), the datasets may be manually reprocessed using standard off-line analysis software or maybe referred to an expert crystallographer. The SMART X2S comes with an extra license for the APEX2 software suite. The suite seamlessly interfaces with all data generated by the SMART X2S.
