Diffraction peaks are superimposed on the scattering pattern of the protein in solution and crystals grow by direct addition of lysozyme monomers, without preliminary formation of oligomers.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Generally, the intensities of powder diffraction data are complicated by overlapping diffraction peaks with similar d-spacings.
