Hi Jenny (and others),
The buffer systems used in the PACT screen are described in the
following paper by Janet Newman.
/Acta Cryst./ (2004). D*60*, 610-612 [ doi:10.1107/S0907444903029640
<http://dx.doi.org/10.1107/S0907444903029640> ]
Novel buffer systems for macromolecular crystallization
J. Newman
<http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/citedin?search_on=name&author_name=Newman,%20J.>
I am not aware of any commercial source of these buffer systems. But the
paper describes the recipes to make them, which is quite easy.

Hi,
Sorry to bother you all.I'm going to try to reproduce some results
from the initial screening from PACT kit.The conditions are something
like 0.1M PCB buffer, 25% w/v PEG 1500 and 0.1 MMT buffer, 25%w/v PEG
1500. I was just wondering is there any easy way to get these
buffers?Do you happen to know where to order?Or I have to order the
component formula separately and then make buffers by myself?Thanks.
Jenny
