HYDROPIX

(including MAKEPIXB)

Version 7c, February 2006

J. García de la Torre, "Building hydrodynamic bead-shell models for rigid bioparticles of arbitrary shape" Biophys. Chem., 94, 265-274 (2001).

HYDROPIX is a computer program for the calculation of solution properties of macromolecular or supramolecular structures having an arbitrary shape, using bead-shell models. The task of building and specifying the hydrodynamic model is left to the user, but for this purpose we provide an ancillary FORTRAN program, MAKEPIXB, which just requires some extra lines of code that specify the dimensions and shape of the structure.

For more details, see the HYDROPIX User Guide
