Essentially fatty acid free HSA (type A1887), and porcine trypsin (1800 U/mg) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (USA) and used without further purification. HSA concentration was determined using an extinction coefficient of 35 700 M-1 cm-1 at 280 nm. Protease inhibitors N-p-Tosyl-L-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone (TPCK; ≥97.0%) and phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride (PMSF; ≥99.0%) were from Sigma-Aldrich. PCB was purified from commercial Hawaiian Spirulina pacifica powder (Nutrex, USA) and quantified by measuring absorbance at 680 nm as previously described [13 ]. All measurements were done in 20 mM Tris buffer, pH 7.4 (except for trypsin digestion study, see below). Final concentrations of methanol in HSA-PCB mixtures did not exceed 1% (v/v). All other chemicals were of analytical reagent grade and Milli-Q water (Millipore, Molsheim, France) was used throughout the experiments.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
