Protein Biology Methods
Genes direct the production of proteins that play a significant role in diseases such as cancer, Alzheimer’s, and diabetes. Protein biology helps us understand the output of these genes and the way they influence our health. Through protein isolation, purification, separation, and detection, protein biology provides earlier and more accurate diagnoses.

Step 2: Clean Up
Once extracted, the sample needs to be cleaned of the impurities that can hinder downstream sample analysis. We offer the full clean up workflow, from dialysis to desalting and concentration.

Step 3: Purification
Purification is another necessary protein biology method and involves separation by protein binding, washing, and elution. The protocol used will depend on the protein you’re purifying. To get started, shop prepacked columns, products for protein purification, dialysis and desalting, and endotoxin removal. For further information, download our resources.
