If you have enough crystals to experiment with, just do a normal series of
heavy atom derivatives, starting with good old favorites such as mercury
and platinum. As an added touch of class you can try tungstate - it's like
sulphate, but has fat W so it can be used probably just like a hali
stand."

Subject: [ccp4bb] recommendation for heavy atoms used in lithium sulfate
an
Hi Tiancen,
I can recommend using a Halide soak (bromide or iodine). You could
try to "exchange" part your salt with sodium bromide. Always use a
bad looking crystal for the first soak though to see that it doesn't
get damaged by the soak.
See for further reference:
Novel approach to phas
Dear all,
Could any one recommend some heavy atoms used for crystals grown in 0.1M
tri-sodium citrate pH 5.6, 1M Lithium sulfate and 0.5M ammonium sulfate? I read
from Hampton user guide of heavy atom kit that "high salt concentrations are
not the ideal medium for heavy atom reactions with mac
