elektronitiheyskartoitus
Elektronitiheyskartoitus, also known as electron density mapping, is a technique used in crystallography to determine the three-dimensional structure of molecules. This method involves the use of X-ray diffraction data to map the electron density within a crystal. The electron density is a measure of the probability of finding an electron at a particular point in space. By analyzing the diffraction pattern, scientists can infer the positions of atoms within the crystal lattice.
The process begins with the collection of X-ray diffraction data from a single crystal of the molecule
Elektronitiheyskartoitus is particularly useful for studying the structure of large molecules, such as proteins and nucleic
