[gmx-users] about salt concentration

Dear GROMACS users,

In most of the papers that compare the results from MD with NMR data the
authors use just counter ions to neutralize the system. However, a salt
concentration of 0.10-0.15 M would be closer to the buffer solution used in
the NMR experiment. Why then people don't use more salt in their
simulations? Do they want to avoid ff inaccuracies or to be able to use a
shorter cutoff for the short range interactions? I would be very interested
to know the reason.

thanks,
Thomas
