Today, the ability to obtain pure proteins is essential for developing targeted drugs, creating vaccines and understanding biological processes at a molecular level. The development and optimization ...

Tedious, time-consuming, exasperating: Those are perhaps the three words that researchers use most commonly to describe protein purification. Proteins, and their little sisters the peptides, are among ...

The host cell system is a critical determinant of recombinant protein quality and yield, with direct influence on protein ...

Antibodies are essential proteins produced by the immune system that recognize and bind to specific targets, known as antigens. Their high specificity and affinity make antibodies invaluable tools in ...

Affinity chromatography can be applied to a wide array of proteins and works by exploiting the binding properties between proteins and ligands. It involves passing a recombinant protein mixture over a ...

Conventionally, chromatography is used for protein purification, which is extremely expensive. Alternatively, the protein crystallization method could be used to determine protein structure, but this ...

Heriot-Watt University researchers have developed a new method to extract high-quality protein from rapeseed waste using ...

Creating analytical tools that support the advancement of knowledge can often come about through the integration of existing information and techniques, theoretical and practical, directed toward a ...
