Today, 2D online or offline liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry is state of the art for the identification of proteins from complex proteome samples in many laboratories. Both 2D liquid chromatography methods use two orthogonal liquid chromatography separation techniques. The most commonly used techniques are strong cation exchange chromatography for the first dimension and reversed phase s...

A purification protocol that comprised ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, affinity chromatography on Affi-gel blue gel, ion exchange chromatography on SP-Sepharose, and gel filtration by FPLC on Superdex 75 was complied to isolate two trypsin inhibitors from Phaseolus vulgaris cv "White Cloud Bean". Both trypsin inhibitors exhibited a molecular mass of 16 kDa and reduced the activit...

Supplement 1: Methods Purification procedure of tissue kallikrein Rat kallikrein was purified from urine to apparent homogeneity by ultrafiltration and ion-exchange chromatography on a DEAE-Sepharose FF column (GE Healthcare, Buckinghamshire, UK), affinity chromatography on an aprotinin (Sigma, MO, USA) coupled HiTrap NHS-activated Sepharose HP column (GE Healthcare) and gel filtration twice on...

Interferon production was induced in mouse Ehrlich ascites tumor cells by infection with Newcastle disease virus. The interferon produced was purified by precipitation with ammonium sulfate, chromatography on carboxymethyl-Sephadex, treatment with blue dextran and polyethylene glycol, gel filtration on Bio-Gel P-60 and Bio-Gel P-200, chromatography on phosphocellulose, isoelectric focusing, and...

Coloradocin was isolated from a fermentation broth by adsorption onto Amberlite XAD-2. The activity was eluted in MeOH and purified by gel filtration on Shephadex LH-20, followed by liquid-liquid chromatography on diol-bonded silica gel. The last two steps in the purification of this antibiotic included reverse-phase chromatography on C18-bonded silica gel and countercurrent chromatography on a...

An endoglycosidase which cleaves heparin and heparan sulfate was isolated from outdated human platelets by freeze-thaw solubilization, heparin-Sepharose chromatography, DEAE-cellulose chromatography, hydroxylapatite chromatography, octyl-agarose chromatography, concanavalin A-Sepharose chromatography, and Sephacryl S-200 gel filtration. The overall extent of purification of the platelet heparit...

antibacterial activity of the aerial extracts from xanthium brasilicum prepared in methanol, diethyl ether, petroleum benzene and an equal mixture of the three solvents were studied against bacterial laboratory standards and clinical isolates using the disk diffusion method. the best antibacterial results were obtained when methanol or the solvent mixture was used. the crude extract with the hi...

Early pregnancy factor (EPF) is a pregnancy-associated protein detected in the maternal serum by using the rosette inhibition assay and by evaluating the suppression of adoptive transfer of contact sensitivity. Because of its inhibitory effect on the functional reactivity of immunocompetent cells, EPF is thought to be involved in immunoregulation of the maternal immune system during early pregn...
