Enzymatic Hydrolysis and HPAEC-PAD Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To exemplify the function of our enzymatic assay on an environmental sample, we hydrolyzed a sample stepwise and detected the resulting products via HPAEC with pulsed amperometric detection (PAD). The sample extract from Helgoland at April 27, 2017 was first hydrolyzed with 100 nM FbGH30 for 25 min at 37 °C, and then FaGH17A was applied in the same manner. Between each digestion, the reaction was stopped by boiling the sample for 5 min at 100 °C; precipitated protein was removed by filtration through 0.2-µm centrifuge filters (Costar Spin-X; Corning), and an aliquot was taken.
Samples were applied on an ICS-5000+ (Dionex) with electrochemical detection on a gold working electrode and a pH reference electrode (Ag/AgCl) according to Unfried et al. (37 (link)). Separation was attained by using a Dionex CarboPac PA100 analytical column at 35 °C. Glucose (Sigma), laminaribiose, laminaritriose, laminaritetraose, and laminaripentaose (all from Megazyme) were used as reference.

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.
