I am trying to identify some small molecules in a bacterial supernatant extract. I would like to remove proteins to make mass spectrometry easier. I have tried protein crash with ACN but the concentrated supernatant extract is more soluble in water and it does not solublize in high concentrations of solvent. Would heating supernatant for 5 minutes at 100 C precipitate some proteins? My active component in the supernatant is heat resistant (at least to 100 C).
