Abstract: A crystallisation process of biological macromolecules in gel-matrix was studied by Mach-Zehnder interferometer and the results were compared with a numerical model of periodic precipitation. This investigation is focused on the coupling between transport phenomena, nucleation and crystal growth, which may lead to non-linear behaviour.
