The Use of an Acid and Heat-Labile Surfactant for In-Gel Digestion

This poster shows how peptide recovery is significantly improved with the use of the mass spectrometry-compatible surfactant ProteaseMAX™. Peptide losses are also minimized leading to increased protein coverages and higher probability of protein identification for low-abundance proteins. Complete peptide extraction and low losses are necessary for comprehensive analysis and to detect proteins in low nanogram levels.
