As a researcher working with purified proteins from bacteria, the B-PER™ Complete Bacterial Protein Extraction Reagent has become an indispensable tool in my research. Its role in lysing bacterial cells efficiently is crucial, as it enables to extract total proteins with high yield and minimal degradation. It enables rapid (15 min incubation) and effective disruption of bacterial cell walls (due to added lysozyme), ensuring maximum protein yield with minimal degradation. This extraction reagent is invaluable for various downstream applications, such as Western blotting, enzyme assays, and protein analysis, facilitating accurate and reproducible results in bacterial protein research.
