Quorum Sensing

(sharon) #1
physiological pH and the antibody present in the flow-through
is collected and used for downstream purposes without any
need for neutralization. This system has been adopted because
unlike Protein A and Protein G purification systems, no elution
step is involved and thus the antibodies are not subjected to or
altered by potential harsh elution conditions.


  1. Add 15% (vol/vol) glycerol and 5% (wt/vol) glucose to each
    well of the first 96-well plate (the one corresponding to the
    overnight culture) and store at 80 C as a bacterial stock.
