I need to quantify expression from SDS-PAGE-gels and I am not quite sure whether I am doing it right... (I have attached a typical gel in greyscale: lane 1 Marker, lanes 2-5 standard concentrations, all other lanes are screening results with protein only expressed in lanes 6-9). I also attached a picture of the histograms I get from the scans. The question now is: How do I quantify correctly? When I subtract the background, I get negative results from the calculatiobns, since the standard concentrations are lacking the background (they are consisting of pure standard protein)... Is there any way to circumvent that? What would be the correct way to do it?
