Pulse Chase Analysis

Need Incubators for your lab? Click here Ā  As an Amazon Associate Conductscience Inc earns revenue from qualifying purchases Ā  Introduction The pulse-chase analysis is a powerful technique to study the synthesis, processing, and transport of proteins. The pulse-chase analysis is widely used in biochemistry and molecular biology for the examination of the cellular process […]

Silver Staining Protocol

Need stains for your experiments? Click here Silver staining is a powerful technique for protein identification in gels as silver binds to chemical sidechains of the amino acids, including the carboxyl and sulfhydryl groups. It was introduced in 1972 and later adapted for protein separation from the polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.Ā  The nucleation sites in proteins […]

Southern Blotting Protocol

Need Laboratory Equipment for your reasearch? Click here Southern blotting is a hybridization technique used for deoxyribose nucleic acid (DNA). The method was named after Edward M. Southern, who developed the technique in the 1970s. The method involves the transfer of DNA fragments from an electrophoresis gel to a membrane causing immobilization of the DNA […]

Affinity Chromatography Protocol

Introduction Affinity chromatography is a versatile separation protocol that uses the biological interactions for characterization and detailed analysis of sample components. It is based on highly specific interactions between two molecules, such as the interactions between enzyme and its substrate, receptor, and ligand, or antibody and antigen. These reversible interactions are used for the purification […]

BRADFORD Protein Determination Protocol

Need Laboratory Equipment for your reasearch? Click here Introduction and Principle Developed by Marion M. Bradford in 1976, the Bradford assay is a quick protocol, and the same amount of proteins are used as the Lowry assay. This assay is somewhat accurate, and out-of-range samples can be retested within minutes. This assay is recommended for […]

Fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC) Protocol

Introduction Fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC) is a type of liquid chromatography that provides high resolution by small-diameter stationary phases for protein characterization and separation. The technique features high loading capacity, biocompatible buffer systems, fast flow rates, and stationary phases for common chromatography modes (e.g., gel filtration, ion exchange, reversed phase, and affinity chromatography). The […]

Gel Filtration Chromatography Protocol

Filtration Chromatography Protocol

Need benchtop equipment for your lab? Click here Introduction Gel-filtration chromatography, also known as size exclusion chromatography, is a versatile technique that permits the separation of proteins and other biological molecules. The gel filtration chromatography separates the proteins solely based on molecular size differences. For this, a porous matrix is used to which the molecules, […]

Ion-exchange Chromatography Protocol

Introduction Ion Exchange Chromatography (IEC) is a powerful liquid chromatographic technique used for bioseparation. The separation is done by a reversible interaction between charged molecules of the sample with charged ligands attached to a column. The method offers a sizeable sample-handling capacity, powerful resolving ability, broad applicability, moderate cost, and ease of handling. These characteristics […]

High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) Protocol

Introduction High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is a powerful separation technique used for the analysis of ions, proteins, and organic molecules. HPLC is based on the mechanisms of adsorption, partition, and ion exchange, which depend on the type of stationary phase used. The technique involves a solid stationary phase, usually enclosed in a stainless-steel column, and […]
