Application

EPPS has been used:
  • to verify the effect of pH variation on the proteolytic activity of the posterior midgut (PMG) contents and anterior midgut (AMG) tissue homogenate
  • to prepare a destaining buffer to destain intensely stained gel pieces
  • to prepare digestion buffer for in-gel enzymatic digestion
  • to reconstitute the digested peptides for the processing of brain-derived extracellular vesicle (EV) proteins and 16-plex isobaric tandem mass tag (TMT) peptide labeling
