good point! recently we managed to collect very good room temperature
data with PILATUS detector at SLS. if your crystals are large enough,
say 100 microns or so, you have chance. regards, meitian

Hi Rafael,
If it has not been already suggested: try DMSO (20% to 40%).
In my limited experience I found that often DMSO works well for
crystallization conditions with high-salt or high buffer component
(like 1M D,L,-Malic acid).

Dear all,
I got these beautiful looking crystals that grow in high salt (1.8M) and
diffract
why not stay with room temp?
many structures have been solved at RT...

Did you also try a cryo salt (e.g. Li+)? In the best case the xtals might even
grow in there.

You could try conditioning your crystals in a dehydration device (such
as the FMS (proteros) or the HC1 (EMBL)). Even if you crystals don't
improve from dehydration they can often be cryocooled without any
cryoprotectant after the mother liquor has been removed. We offer the
HC1b at the ESRF
With salt-based conditions sodium malonate is your friend:

Hi Rafael,
If you really want to diffract your crystals frozen, I have two more
suggestions for cryo-procedures which can be tried:
a) annealing
e.g.
Harp, J.; Timm, D. Bunick, G. Macromolecular crystal annealing:
overcoming increased mosaicity associated with cryocrystallography.
