Concentrating Proteins with 4 mL Concentrators:
1
Fill concentrator with sample within the working volume
capacity range noted in the table above (ensure that the hinged
lid is fully seated).
2
Insert assembled concentrator into centrifuge (when fixed
angle rotors are used, angle the concentrators so that the
printed windows face upwards/outwards).
3
Centrifuge at recommended speeds, taking care not to exceed
the maximum g force indicated in the table above (20 minutes
at 7,500 g is recommended for 30
´
concentration of 4 mL at
10
°
C).
4
Once the desired concentration is achieved, remove assembly
and recover sample from the bottom of the concentrate pocket
with a pipette.
Desalting/Buffer Exchange
1
Concentrate sample to desired level or at least
5
´
.
2
Empty filtrate container.
3
Refill concentrator with an appropriate buffer.
4
Concentrate the sample again and repeat the
process until the concentration of the
contaminating species is sufficiently reduced.
Typically three wash cycles will remove 99% of
initial salt content.
