Leticia explaining the procedure for mixing the lysozyme solution
Some very nice colored protein crystals were produced!
 This was our first attempt to use food coloring to identify crystals by the % of salt used in each of the lysozyme solution samples.  Some very nice yellow, blue, red, and green crystals were produced!
