Suggested In-Gel Digestion Solutions

⦁ AmBic 100 mM: Dissolve 1.40 g in 150 mL ultrapure H₂O. Fill to 200 mL with H₂O in volumetric flask.

⦁ AmBic 50 mM: Prepare from 100 mM AmBic solution with ultrapure H₂O

⦁ Destain solution: Prepare fresh by mixing ACN with 100 mM AmBic (1:1, vol/vol).

⦁ Reduction solution: 10 mM DTT in 100 mM AmBic. Make shortly before use.

⦁ Alkylation solution: 55 mM IAA in 100 mM AmBic. Make shortly before use. IAA is light sensitive! Keep it in dark.
