How to isolate osteopontin protein from cancer cell line?

10 October 2013 1 8K Report

There is no standard procedure for isolation of osteopontin from cell line culture.

You should contact Prof. Vincent Castronono (Université de Liège; Belgium) who is registered on RG. He knows very well this area.

Best regards
