Dear Jay,
They may all be salt. However, compared to the effort of producing the
protein and setting up the crystallization trials, testing the crystals
in an X-ray beam is trivial. In your place, I would test them all,
either on a home source or at the synchrotron. I have had one case when
there were protein crystals and ammonium sulfate crystals in the same
drop. You do not want to miss those protein crystals!
Best,
Herman

Dear Friends ,
I need to know whether phosphate can form hexagon shaped
crystals.
In one particular condition i have 4 different pattern , 3 seems
to me as salt crystals, except for the one...
please find the attachment for the reference..
Thanks in advance
