A well-prepared solution is key for robust data. Inconsistencies in mixing or sterilizing can cause harmful artifacts in your findings.
Dilution Methods for Short Peptides
Short peptides dissolve easily in aqueous solutions. Using smaller increments helps avoid precipitation. Some labs use isotonic buffers to keep the concentration stable.
Sterile Filtration vs. Non-Sterile Techniques
Sterile filtration remains the gold standard for sensitive protocols, especially in virus research. Non-sterile methods might suffice for initial screening but can threaten the immune system response if contamination occurs.
