In-Gel Digestion &
Protein Identification
Identify proteins from gel electrophoresis in days, not weeks. When you need to know what's in a band, our mass spectrometry workflow delivers definitive results quickly.
Service Overview
Whether you're identifying an unknown band, confirming an expected protein, or screening for contaminants, our streamlined workflow uses industry-standard Advion mass spectrometry to generate high-quality results. Ideal for validation experiments, follow-up studies, and researchers on tight timelines or budgets.
Best For
Single band identification from SDS-PAGE or native PAGE gels
Protein confirmation studies
Contaminant or co-migration screening
Quick and affordable protein identification
Deliverables
- → List of identified proteins with scoring metrics
- → Molecular weight match to gel position
- → Optional: quantitative abundance estimates
How It Works
Submit your gel or excised bands along with your completed intake form.
Our team performs in-gel tryptic digestion and peptide extraction.
Peptides are analysed by LC-MS/MS on our Advion mass spectrometry platform.
Protein identities are matched against curated databases and scored.
You receive a clear report with identified proteins and confidence metrics.
Turnaround
Results typically delivered within 5–7 business days of sample receipt.
Platform
Advion mass spectrometry with LC-MS/MS for high-confidence peptide identification.
