The ALBA Synchrotron: techniques useful for the study of biological samples and medicines 

Abstract

This OPA technical note presents the techniques of the ALBA Synchrotron focused on the study of biology and biomedicine at the beamlines MISTRAL, XALOC and MIRAS. ALBA is the only synchrotron light source existing in Spain and use the high quality synchrotron light to understand the structure of materials in different scientific and industrial challenges such as the SARS-CoV-2 virus amongst many others. Its cutting-edge techniques offer clear advantages over conventional techniques.
