Hello

I am trying to purify human growth hormone with His6 tag. thus i should make buffers with different imidazole concentration. i made my buffer solution at room temperature. but when i put buffer solution on ice to make it cold for using on cell lysis and purification, it precipitated (somethings like crystals or ice crystals). but after heating it with my hands the precipitations disappeared.

what is the problem with my buffer? why thing like this happens?is there any problem with my buffer preparation?

My buffer:

NaH2PO4     50mM

NaCl             500mM

pH=7.4

I have seen this precipitation in both pH of 8 and 7.4.

Thanks in advance.
