Proteins need specific conditions to maintain their conformational, stability and activity characteristics . Unfavorable conditions or sudden changes in the protein's native environment can lead to the protein being degraded, denatured or precipitated. In this post we will…

The production of polyclonal antibodies is carried out from a mixture of B lymphocytes with an affinity for different epitopes of the same antigen. And it is precisely this characteristic, the ability to recognize multiple epitopes of a certain…

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight-mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS)-based direct-on-target microdroplet progress assay (DOT-MGA) was not too long ago described as a novel methodology of phenotypic antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST). Here, we developed the appliance of MALDI-TOF…
