In this study, the Nanotrap® Protein Enrichment Affinity Kit (PEAK) was compared to a magnetic, protein-binding
bead-based enrichment kit. Three different healthy human plasma samples were processed using several different Nanotrap® PEAK methods, including the Combined Particle Method, the 2-Particle Method, and the 3-Particle Method.1 After Nanotrap PEAK enrichment, each sample was digested, cleaned up, and analyzed using
LC-MS/MS. Each of the three samples was also processed using off-the-shelf kits for protein enrichment, digestion,
and clean-up and was analyzed using the same settings on the LC-MS/MS. Each of the three samples was also
processed without protein enrichment as a neat sample. Neat samples were digested, cleaned up, and analyzed
using LC-MS/MS.
All three of the Nanotrap PEAK methods resulted in more unique protein identifications than the competitor kit’s
method for all plasma samples.
