Protocol: SERUM PROTEIN PRECIPITATION WITH ACETONE

PROCEDURE:

  • 900uL of acetone at -20ºC for each 100uL of sera
  • Vortex
  • Store 1h at -20ºC
  • Spin for 10 min at 13.000g (4ºC)
  • Eliminate the supernatant
  • Mix the pellet with 500uL of acetone at -20ºC
  • Spin for 10 min at 13.000g
  • Aspirate and left the eppendorf opened for 30min to evaporate acetone.
  • Mix with RIPA and proteasa inhibitors
  • Incubate 30 min in ice + vortex
  • Spin for 10 min at 13.000g
  • The supernatant is what we needed, if something precipitate we have to remove it.
