Hi all, Thanks for providing multiple solutions to my problem. Prof . Tim Gruene and Prof. James Holton provided some nice solutions. However since the data are collected from different crystals, I am not sure whether I can do MAD phasing. My aim is to merge the two data-sets to circumvent the problem posed by the fact that the synchroton data is twinned. So maybe merging the data sets will provide better phases from SAD phasing? My main concern was how to do scaling adjustments before using the data-sets together.
