A probabilistic formula originally designed for small molecules, which allows the recovery of the complete from a partial structure [Giacovazzo (1983). Acta Cryst. A39, 685-692], is reconsidered. Experimental tests show that the formula is potentially able to estimate phases accurately provided 30-40% of the electron density is correctly located. The formula may be used for refining the phase values obtained by isomorphous derivative techniques as well as for extending the phasing process to a resolution higher than the derivative resolution.
