Dear friends, When I try to measure protein encapsulation efficiency & release estimation from CSNP using mBCA, I get very high back ground due to chitosan residues as they have free NH2 group, which also react with mBCA reagents.This mask the amount of protein present in the supernatant and make it almost impossible to estimate protein. No luck even with 10000X dilution of supernatant or even filtering the supernatant with 0.45 micron filter or even 3kD cutoff filter. Has any one ever experience the same problem? Chitosan community, please do suggest some solution what to do in this case. I will greatly appreciate your kind help and guidance in this regard.
