Reagent Solutions and mixtures
a)
Extraction Buffer 12.0 mM Ammon
ium Formate; pH 5.0
.
—
In a 1L Solvent reservoir
bottle add 0.771g Ammonium formate and 1L Milli-Q water. Stir until dissolved completely. Adjust
pH with formic acid to pH 5.0. (
1-2 drops
)
b)
Pro
Protease Solution
–
50mg/mL. Weigh 100 mg of protease in a test tube and add 2 mL of
water. Gently mix to dissolve/suspend and make sure no foaming. 0.1mL/sample needed. Make
fresh for each batch.
c)
T
akadiastase
–
weigh 3g of taka-diastase and add 30ml 10mM ammonium formate pH 5.0
extraction buffer (1mL/sample needed) Make fresh each batch.
d) Mobile Phase A 12.0 mM Ammonium Formate; pH 3.0
.
—
I
n a 1L Solvent reservoir bottle add
0.771g Ammonium formate and 1L Milli-Q water. Stir until dissolved completely. Adjust pH with
formic acid to pH 3.0
