Hello Rhys,
I suggest using an assay such as that described in Anal. Biochem.
336:117 to measure the amount detergent in your concentrated samples.
I found this assay accurate and easy to use with DDM. It should work
with b-OG too.
Good luck,
Ho

Hi Rhys,
The bOG concentration of 1.0% is quite acceptable and if your protein is
stable and happy in OG, then you're in luck. At 30% PEG 600, I'm not
surprised you're seeing the phase separation or detergent 'blob's for lack
of a better term. I believe you have the latter, which many of us workin
Depending on the Space (Laue) group, there may be alternative indexing
possibilities which will be sorted out in Pointless - did you run that program?
I would recommend using the ccp4i task "Symmetry, Scale, Merge (Aimless)" which
uses Aimless instead of Scala - Aimless may be a bit more robust
Dear All,
I have been trying to scale (using SCALA) the diffraction data set collected
from multiple crystals. Data was indexed using mosflm but fails to scale with
an error saying
"negative scale factors" when scaling was tried in a constant mode whereas it
fails to scale with an error saying
