Re: buffers in the far uv

Re: recommendation of buffers in the far-UV, there is a nice table
given by Franz Schmid in the book entitled "Protein Structure",
(ed) Thomas Creighton, Oxford U. Press (1990?).  It also provides
a list of commonly used additives and their absorbance in the 
far-UV as well.  Since there is a need to optimize this condition
in data collection for far-UV CD a large body of data already
exists in the literature.

Hope this helps.
Cheers
