Lanthanide derivatives are obtained with these compounds, either by soaking or by
co-crystallization, into crystals of biological macromolecules.
The crystal derivatives thus obtained can be used to solve the
structure of biological macromolecules by using structure-determination
methods taking advantage of the strong anomalous signal of lanthanides
in their LIII absorption edge or, for some of them, with radiation
from a lab X-ray source. Derivative based on Eu atom (LIII abs. edge: 6977 eV)
or Yb atom (LIII abs. edge: 8944 eV) are available.
