Repeat . This prepares the resin to bind the peptides. 4. Sample Binding Below is the standard protocol for peptide desalting
💡 If your sample contains high concentrations of salts or urea, increase the number of wash steps in Section 5 to avoid interference during mass spectrometry. Repeat
Dispense the liquid into a clean, sterile microcentrifuge tube.
50–70% ACN in 0.1% TFA (depending on peptide hydrophobicity). 2. Wetting the Tip Set your pipette to 10 µL. Aspirate the Wetting Solution (100% ACN) into the tip. Dispense to waste. Repeat 2 times . This activates the C18 resin. 3. Equilibration Aspirate the Equilibration Solution (0.1% TFA). Dispense to waste.
The sample is now ready for (MALDI-TOF or LC-MS/MS).
