Description
General description
A complete mammalian proteome extraction kit (C-PEK) designed to extract virtually all proteins from both mammalian tissues and culture cells in a simple two step process within a microcentrifuge tube to minimize protein loss. The extraction results in a total protein sample that is a clarified and non-viscous protein solution showing higher resolution and an increased total number of spots in 2-D gel electrophoresis. Sample size: 1x10⁷ - 1x10⁸ cells or 50-100 mg tissue.
Biochem/physiol Actions
ProteoExtract® Complete Mammalian Proteome Extraction Kit is designed to extract total proteins from mammalian tissue culture cells or mammalian tissue.
Packaging
1 kit in Glass bottle
Preparation Note
Wash Buffer
The Wash Buffer is provided ready-to-use. The buffer should be stored at 4°C.
Resuspension Buffer
The Resuspension Buffer is provided ready-to-use. It can be stored at 4°C up to 6 month. For prolonged storage freeze the buffer in convenient aliquots at -20°C.
Avoid repeated freezing and thawing!
Extraction Reagent
The Extraction Reagent is supplied as dry powder and can be stored unopened at 4°C. The Extraction Reagent should be reconstituted just prior to use as described below. After reconstitution, it can be stored at 4°C up to 6 month. For prolonged storage freeze the buffers in convenient aliquots at -20°C.
Avoid repeated freezing and thawing!
Reducing Agent
The Reducing Agent is supplied as dry powder. It can be stored unopened at 4°C. The Reducing Agent should be reconstituted just prior to use as described below. After reconstitution, aliquot the unused material in 60 µl volumes and freeze at -20°C for further use.
Avoid repeated freezing and thawing!
Benzonase®
Benzonase® should be stored at 4°C.
