Hi 白雪慧
There's another solution, which I have never known to fail.
Set up your conditions with everything in the drop except for the butanol
in one of our "Vapor Batch" plates. Cover the drops with oil - we use
light mineral oil - although I'm sure heavy would be just as good.
Then put the same
Hello

have worked in the past include:
1. covering the drop in oil (some people prefer light oil, I personally
prefer heavy/viscous oil, as it makes harvesting easier)
2. diluting the drop with a much larger volume of mothe
We had exactly the same thing happening with some crystals grown in tBuOH. The
evaporation of tBuOH leads to currents in the drop and crystals tumbling about.
Our first solution was patience and persistence, trying to trap a goodlooking
crystal near the edge and loop it out. After a time however,
