For some reason it would appear that the message below was not distributed to ccp4bb when I sent it this morning, JISCMail recommended that I resend the message, apologies if some have already received it.

Dear Munan,

First of all, you want to consider if the apparent differences in cell dimensions of the two data sets are actually significant or not. If you use the "Refine cell" option in iMosflm, it will give an estimated error in the refined cell dimensions. It is certainly unusual to get significantly different cell parameters from the same crystal, unless there has been significant radiation damage. Even then, the changes are usually very small (much less than 1%).

If you want to process the two datasets with the same cell parameters, this is very easy to do. If you are running iMosflm, you can simply edit the cell parameters that appear on the images pane (click once to highlight them, click again (over the numbers) to make them editable). If you are running ipmosflm simply include a CELL keyword. There is no need to reindex.

Best wishes,

Andrew Leslie

Dear all,
Can anybody give me some suggestion about data processing with mosflm. I want to process one dataset with defining the cell parameter. I collect two dataset of the same crystal but when I am trying to index and integrate then i saw some differences in the cell parameter.

I also tried to combine two MTZ with "sortmtz" but it fails. So, now I tried to process second dataset with defining cell parameter from the previous one. Please suggest me some ways.

thanks you in advance

regards
