X-ray scattering and sorption data associated with the publication "Antiaromatic Covalent Organic Frameworks Based on Dibenzopentalenes". X-ray scattering data is provided for COF and POP materials, including data from stability tests, as three-column ascii files with columns q (nm-1), I (m-1) and uncertainty on I, as well as being provided in 2θ.
OpenSCAD, STL and technical drawings for the capillary flow-through cell designed primarily for use with The MOUSE instruments.
This flow-through cell can be used in conjunction with:
- Modular sample holder (10.5281/zenodo.7499416)
- Solid sample rack/plate (10.5281/zenodo.7499424)
- Laser-cut sample holder (10.5281/zenodo.7499437)
Technical drawings and documents for building a compact, heated, vacuum compatible flow-through sample holder. This holder is in use at the BAM MOUSE instrument as well as at the I22 beamline at the Diamond Light Source (see references for instrument details).
This holder has several features:
- The holder can be used in vacuum environments as well as in atmosphere
- It has two G 1/4" UNF fittings to attach HPLC tubing for (optionally) flowing a medium through the sample cell
- There are two additional (unflowed) sample positions for backgrounds and calibrants, held at the same temperature
- The low-mass design coupled with a 250W heating element can achieve heating rates of 1 degree C per second, when coupled (for example) with an Omron E5CC PID controller.
- The sample holder insert can be made from various materials depending on the application. Sealing the sample from the vacuum can be achieved using kapton, teflon or Magic tape, depending on the temperature requirements. The inlet and outlet holes will need to be punctured with a needle to enable flow.
- Large exit cones ensure a clear exit angle of at least 45 degrees two theta.
- It has been tested with temperatures up to 400 degrees C.
- Compression area has been raised and polished to ensure a good vacuum seal.

Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) can be used for structural determination of biological macromolecules and polymers in their native states (e.g. liquid phase). This means that the structural changes of (bio-)polymers, such as proteins and DNA, can be monitored in situ to understand their sensitivity to changes in chemical environments. In an attempt to improve the reliability of such experiments, the reduction of radiation damage occurring from exposure to X-rays is required. One such method, is to use scavenger molecules to protect macromolecules against radicals produced during radiation exposure, such as reactive oxygen species (ROS). In this study we investigate the feasibility of applying the compatible solute, osmolyte and radiation protector Ectoine (THP(B)), as a scavenger molecule during SAXS measurements of the single-stranded DNA-binding protein Gene-V Protein (G5P/GVP). In this case, we monitor the radiation induced changes of G5P during bio-SAXS measurments and the resulting microscopic energy-damage relation was determined from microdosimetric calculations by Monte-Carlo based particle scattering simulations with TOPAS/Geant4 and a custom target-model. This resulted in a median-lethal energy deposit of pure G5P at 4 mg mL−1 of E1/2 = 7 ± 5 eV, whereas a threefold increase of energy-deposit was needed under the presence of Ectoine to reach the same level of damage. This indicates that Ectoine increases the possible exposure time before radiation-damage to G5P is observed. Furthermore, the dominant type of damage shifted from aggregation in pure solutions towards a fragmentation for solutions containing Ectoine as a cosolute. These results are interpreted in terms of indirect radiation damage by reactive secondary species, as well as post-irradiation effects, related to preferential-exclusion of the cosolute from the protein surface. Hence, Ectoine is shown to provide a non-disturbing way to improve structure-determination of proteins via bio-SAXS in future studies.
A Round Robin study has been carried out to estimate the impact of the human element in small-angle scattering data analysis. Four corrected datasets were provided to participants ready for analysis. All datasets were measured on samples containing spherical scatterers, with two datasets in dilute dispersions, and two from powders.
Most of the 46 participants correctly identified the number of populations in the dilute dispersions, with half of the population mean entries within 1.5 % and half of the population width entries within 40 %, respectively. Due to the added complexity of the structure factor, much fewer people submitted answers on the powder datasets.
For those that did, half of the entries for the means and widths were within 44 % and 86 % respectively. This Round Robin experiment highlights several causes for the discrepancies, for which solutions are proposed.
This dataset is a complete set of raw, processed and analyzed data, associated with the manuscript mentioned in the title.
All associated metadata and processing history has been added. Particle size distribution analyses using McSAS are included as well.
The samples consisted of a 4.2 mass% dispersion of yttria-stabilized zirconia nanoparticles in a cross-linked matrix. The measurements show a good dispersion with minimal agglomeration. The wide-angle region shows diffraction information consistent with zirconia.
