Setting up vapor-diffusion crystallization experiments against four different reservoir solutions showed that the reservoir solution may have a profound effect on the outcome of a crystallization experiment. This suggests that a facile way to increase crystallization space through screening is not to add more crystallization conditions to the process, but to set up the same conditions over different reservoirs.
