X-ray scattering of non-crystalline biological systems using synchrotron radiation.
This tutorial review gives an overview of the progress in the study of non-crystalline systems by X-ray scattering and closely related imaging techniques, made possible by advances in synchrotron radiation sources and instrumentation. A brief introduction to the techniques is followed by the presentation of a variety of recent applications to problems in fundamental and applied research in biochemistry and biophysics and food and pharmaceutical technology.
