Dear Bryan,
Thank you very much for the comments, I have tried glycerol and it did affect the resolution, at the same time, through reading former posts, I find that sucrose might not be a good choice for crystals grown in salt, I will definitely try adding glycerol stepwise, but at the same time, I am wondering if high conc. ammonium phosphate could be used as cryoprotectant, if so, I would be able to achieve dehydration and cryo at the same time. Best, Joy From: Prince, D Bryan [mailto:dbryan.pri...@astrazeneca.com] Sent: 2013年1月3日 17:17 To: Joy Subject: RE: [ccp4bb] Ammonium phosphate as cryoprotectant Dear Joy, I do not believe that ammonium dibasic phosphate will make a good cryosalt. I would recommend a lithium cryosalt (formate, acetate or sulfate) or glycerol if you really need to stay with the phosphate. Hope this helps!
