Richard, Actually I don't have a copy of Delphi available (hence the use of APBS). I did notice that I see more positive surface area on a molecule with a -13 net charge when the run is done with pdie of 2.0 compared to 20.0 even in the presence of 0.150 mM NaCl ions. I also noticed an oddity

Hi Jack, > In all of the examples distributed with APBS, the pdie (solute dielectric) The pdie must be the protein dielectric constant though the comment for pdie in the pymol generated .in-file reads "# Solute dielectric" ... that is probably a mistake. The APBS-plugin says Protein Dielectric. T

I have stumbled across the parameter causing the difference. In all of the examples distributed with APBS, the pdie (solute dielectric) value is set to 2.0 whereas ABPS-tools.py defaults this to 20.0. I find that if I use 2.0 instead of 20.0 for pdie, the resulting electrostatic potential map i
