I am working on the production of exoploysacchardes from Psychrophilic bacteria. I need deproteinization of the sample before precipitating EPS. Any alternative method will be appreciated.
Hello,
U can check a deproteinization kit provided by biovision company (Catalog #K808-200).
Its a very good method to remove proteins from the plant extracts and its efficency is also very good.
Thank you jyoti Kaushik for you valuable input.
Dear Ali,
You can use ice cold 12% w/v (final concentration) of TCA to deproteinise the cell free supernatant. My this article may help you,
