I have done 2 purifications using a Ni-NTA column so far and each time we've noticed (based on my SDS-PAGE results) that lots of protein is collected in my flow-through (not binded to the resin).

We've tried incubating the resin with the protein at room temperature, rotating for 2 hrs. We've also tried using a gilson minipump to pump our solubilized protein solution into a column at a flow-rate of 2 mL/min.

Both procedures resulted in low yield of protein and lots protein located in the flowthrough.
