Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a protein crystal-preparing apparatus and a protein crystal-preparing method, in which protein crystals can be prepared by efficiently attaining protein crystallization conditions having high probability. SOLUTION: The method for preparing the protein crystals comprises irradiating a protein solution in a well for screening among a plurality of wells installed in a container with light for preparation of protein crystals, measuring turbidity of the protein solution after light for preparation of protein crystals was irradiated, obtaining irradiation condition of light giving turbidity in which crystallization is expected in highest probability based on detection result of turbidity detection, setting this irradiation conduction as crystallization condition of light for preparation of crystals, then irradiating the well for crystal preparation with light for preparation of crystals based on set crystallization condition to produce crystal nuclei in the protein solution, growing the crystal nuclei, to carry out the preparation of protein crystals.
