MAXESS Industry arena is becoming BEAMS for Industry
BEAMS is a joint access point for industry to large research facilities like MAX IV, ESS, DESY, and the expert networks surrounding them.

Insights into better ways to package and deliver RNA into human cells
BioNTech, the biotech company that together with Pfizer developed one of the first COVID-19 vaccines, conducted scattering experiments at DESY’s synchrotron facility PETRA III in collaboration with the University of Mainz and the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL). Research questions and analyses were addressing the question how to better package mRNA in nanoparticles for vaccines or individualized drugs.

Finding drug candidates faster
SARomics Biostructures in collaboration with the BioMAX beamline’s scientists successfully tested the feasibility of serial crystallography at MAX IV. The advent of the first fourth-generation synchrotron pioneered by MAX IV finally makes serial crystallography more easily accessible to private companies. Crystals for drug development SARomics Biostructures is a contract research organization (CRO) offering structural biology services in the field of early-stage drug discovery. One of […]

A study of the freeze-drying process in probiotics
Freeze-drying is one of the most common ways to increase the shelf-life of probiotics and pharmaceutics. The Swedish probiotic company BioGaia wanted to follow the freeze-drying process in-situ to understand how the freezing, annealing and drying steps affect the final material structure. To do this they used large-scale infrastructure techniques. Freeze drying is a very established technique used in the pharmaceutical industry. The established protocols […]
