Can you elute from AE with NH4HCO3? It's volatile, so you could just evaporate it off afterwards.

The problem is that the concentration of pppGpp is too low for crystal soaking. My question is that using volatile buffer, how can I concentrate my substrate, and how can I desalt it? Should I need a freeze dried machine? Best wishes! Lu Zuokun
