Hi,

to help everyone, this observation (and similar ones) could (or maybe should) be added to others of its kind, in the CCP4 wiki at

http://strucbio.biologie.uni-konstanz.de/ccp4wiki/index.php/Conditions_prone_to_salt_crystallization

HTH,

Kay

Hi All,

there is a condition in the JCSG+ screen (0.2M Li2SO4, 0.1M NaOAc pH 4.5, 50.0% v/v PEG-400) which forms heavy precipitate when made here in the lab. I assume that the order of addition of compounds might make a difference, but doesn't this suggest that there is a high probabilty for salt crystals under these conditions? How stable can this solution be? An anecdotes/advice appreciated.

I assume that the PEG makes Li2SO4 fall out of solution, or perhaps it is the pH?
