PLAT042 Type_1 Test moiety formula
In the ideal case, the MoietyFormula string as reported should be identical to the MoietyFormula string calculated from the data in the CIF. If not, the reason should be clear. Examples are cases where there is no separating space between two element names or cases where populations do not add up to integer numbers or when moieties are separated by '.' instead of ','. Example: NO3 should be given as N O3 Note: Alerts _041, _042 & _045 can probably be ignored when the relevant values differ by the same factor.
