Does sonication of cell lysate.... - (Feb/08/2008 )

allow me to skip the centrifugation step to remove debris ?


Thanks !

Don't you sonicate before you spin? I think I might be misunderstanding the question.. after sonication, you need to centrifuge because there are cell bits everywhere.

-Judes-

you have to centrifuge after sonication or even after boiling to get rid of debris.
