Miramodus Molecular Models

Biological and organic molecular models

 

Molecular models of ATP at different scales on acrylic bases

 

Biological molecular models often present a challenge for high quality molecular modelling. Smaller molecules can be made up and presented in the same way as for our inorganic molecules. That said, many biological and organic molecules are often quite large and, where they have, for example, long relaxed carbon chains, they lack any significant rigidity. As a consequence, the models risk being easily distorted through any kind of handling.

Where this is a possibility, we offer to mount the models in a way that holds the molecule in its lowest energy conformation (or whatever conformation you prefer), as illustrated in many of the models here. This not only presents a chemically accurate representation of the structure, but it also results in models whose appearance reflects their high quality and accuracy.
