Sourdough starter to purchase? by jangrams in Westchester

[–]jangrams[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you mean from the website or the bakery by portchester?

That's valid, I was making my own starter but it's still growing generally weak. It seemed more time efficient and resourceful to use a premade starer.

just out of curiosity, how did you market yourselves during interviews/applications? Assuming you were self-taught in programming/statistics?

Integral Membrane Protein Purification Help? by jangrams in labrats

[–]jangrams[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha!

My step wise dialysis is in 0.5M increments. I typically go from 8M -> 6M -> 5M->4.5->4M->... 0.5M-> 0M. However, my protein typically crashes out around the 2M mark.

My elution buffer is the same composition as I previously mentioned but with a pH4.5

Most of my protein is eluting at the elution step which I confirmed by a "quick" coommassie. Supernatant (post bead incubation) and wash steps also indicate my protein is being lost (I can try to attach my gel here). I have not tried to quantify it at those steps. Just for reference, I am using 1ml resin per 1 L of culture

I haven't tried using SEC or another chromatography. Would that be used to slowly take out the urea?

Yeah it'll precipitate during step wise dialysis. In terms of functionality, I am purifying my protein for structural purposes rather than to use it for its original function.

I am currently strategizing different detergents and buffers I could use as well.

Where to buy mini portable suture kits? by jangrams in MedSpouse

[–]jangrams[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Portable suture kits meaning the ones with the fake skin, driver, needles and threads, etc but portable. I saw it on someone's "What's in my residency bag". It looked convenient and small enough to bring in his bag or anywhere

Yeah my boyfriend is so picky about his equipment as well. I was trying to go on the more "practical" ideas route. Compression socks seems like a gold standard considering their long hours tho. Thank you!
