I lysed my cells in lysis buffer (Thiourea, urea, DTT, Triton X-100, tris and protease inhibitor) for 2DE analysis. Unfortunately, we had to switch to in solution digestion instead of in-gel digestion. For LCMS, I was told that thiourea and detergents cannot be present in my samples. So now I am looking for  way to remove detergent and thiourea completely from my samples. Can in-gel digestion with SDS PAGE or protein precipitation using TCA/acetone help to remove all these unwanted components? I did try filtering using 3K MWCO filter but it still had traces of detergent. Please help me out with your experiences. Thank you
