  • we just used 15uL of samples into the sds page for recombinant as none of the protein assay had reliable result

Stimulated Macrophage [protein]

standard curve:

  • [protein] in 350uL of lysate.
    • this is from the lowest protein concentration.

total protein staining

  • heated at 92oC for 3 minutes

Post-lab

  • The Bradford for the stimulated Macrophage went well. Result were not as expected.
  • the effect of SDS were really shown in this lab when protein concentration were needed.
  • S9 Viability was not done
