ash. Perform protein analysis on residue using Kjeldahl or combustion methods. Use 6.25 factor for all cases to calculate g of protein. For ash analysis, incinerate the second residue for 5 hr at 525°C. Cool in desiccator and weigh to nearest 0.1 mg. Subtract crucible and Celite weight to determine ash.

H. Determination of SDFS (by HPLC) Proper deionization of the filtrate is an essential part of obtaining quality chromatographic data on SDFS. Refer to ( Figure 2017.xxE ) to see patterns of glycerol and D-glucose in the presence and absence of buffer salts. To ensure that the resins being used are of adequate deionizing capacity, add 0.1 mL of protease suspension [ C(f )] ) to 40 mL of either maleate buffer [ C(j )] ) or MES buffer [ C(k )] ) along with 3.0 mL of 0.75 M Tris base solution [ , C(l )] , ), 4.0 mL of 2M acetic acid [ , C(m )] , ), 1 mL of glycerol internal standard (100 mg/mL ) [ ), C(g )] ) and 1 mL of D-glucose solution (100 mg/mL). Concentrate this solution to dryness on a rotary evaporator and re-dissolve the residue in 32 mL of deionised water. To 5 mL of this solution in a 13 mL polypropylene tube [ B( s)] sii) , add 1.5 g of Amberlite ® FPA53 (OH − ) resin , C(s) and 1.5 g of Ambersep ® 200 (H + ) resin, C(s) and swirl the contents regularly over 5 min. Allow the resin to settle and remove the supernatant (1.5-2.0 mL) with a syringe [ B(cc )] ) and filter through a polyvinylidene fluoride filter, pore size 0.45 μm [ B(z )] . ). Inject an aliquot (50 L) of this solution onto the TSKTSKgel ® G2500PW XL columns ([ Bio-Rad ® de-ashing pre-cartridges , B(v) in place ).]. No salt peaks should be seen on HPLC. ( a) Filtrate recovery, desalting, and LC analysis.— (Set aside the filtrate from one of the sample duplicates [ , G(c )] ) to use in case of spills or if duplicate LMWDFSDFS data is desired. Transfer the filtrate [ , G(c )] ) into a 500 mL measuring cylinder. Adjust the volume to 300 mL with 78 % v/v aqueous ethanol [ , C(b )], ) , transfer to a 1 L beaker and mix thoroughly. Transfer ~ 75 mL (~ 25 %) of this solution to a 500 mL evaporator flask, and concentrate with a rotary evaporator to dryness at 50°C.
