Re: [ccp4bb] Formulation of my own mother liquor
Well I think some companies make the screens from stocks, the others adjust the pH of the final mixture, so you might want to check the small print for the screen you used in the first place… But when optimizing with your own solutions, you would in general take the easy way out - make good stocks and mix them as you wish.

Re: [ccp4bb] Formulation of my own mother liquor
Generally one will make this up from stock solutions: Make up 1 M Tris chloride pH 8 1 M magnesium chloride 50 % (weight/volume) PEG 6K Then mix these together in the right ratios (for 1 mL) 100 uL 1 M tris solution 200 uL 1 M MgCl2 solution 400 uL 50% PEG solution 300 uL water.

Re: [ccp4bb] Formulation of my own mother liquor
The most important thing is that you do it the same way every time. But you might also put some thought into flexibility, in case you need to explore cryoprotectants, etc. On 11/21/14 11:48, amro selem wrote: Dear All, first i wish you nice weekend, then i wanna ask about formulation of my own mother liquor, i want to optimize a condition containing 0.2m MgCl2, 0.1m Tris , PH 8; and 20% PEG6K as pricipitant.
