Buffers and reagents needed Pre-Load solution: Load MagSi-WAX beads with counter ions: 0.02 M bis Tris pH 6 plus 1 M NaCl Adsorption solution: 0.02 M bis Tris, pH 6 Washing solution: water (HPLC grade) Desorption solution 1 for MALDI MS: 1% TFA in water Desorption solution 2: a) 0.02 M bis Tris, pH 6, 0.05 M NaCl b) 0.02 M bis Tris, pH 6, 0.1 M NaCl c) 0.02 M bis Tris, pH 6, 0.15 M NaCl d) 0.02 M bis Tris, pH 6, 0.20 M NaCl e) 0.02 M bis Tris, pH 6, 0,25 M NaClFor buffer systems, the pI of your target molecule should be taken into account. For efficient adsorption and desorption, the pH of the adsorption and desorption buffer should be at least one pH unit below the pI of the molecule to be bound, but should not exceed 4 pH units. For analysing body fluids like serum, we recommend to test further buffer systems at different pH as well, since typically the pI of the target molecule(s) are unknown.Optional adsorption buffers: 0.1 % TFA (pH < 3.0) sodium citrate buffer, pH 3.5 - 4.5 N-Methylpiperazine, 20 mM, pH 4.5 - 5.0 Piperazine, 20 mM, pH 5.0 - 6.0 bis Tris, 20 mM, pH 5.8 - 6.4 bis Tris propane, 20 mM, pH 6.4 - 7.3 Triethanolamine, 20 mM, pH 7.3 - 7.7For the corresponding desorption solutions (salt step gradient), 0,05 M, 0,1 M, 0,15 M, 0,2 M and 0,25 M NaCl has to be added like for the Tris buffer above.Detergents:For better handling detergents like 0.01 % Tween 20 or 0.01 % TX-100 might be used. However, please note that detergents might interfere with downstream applications like mass spectrometry. We recommend to use up to 8 mM n-octylglucoside for serum analysis.
Pre-loading with Counter Ions:1. Vortex MagSi-WAX beads to a homogeneous suspension.2. Transfer 20 μL slurry to an PCR tube.3. Place the tube to the magnet for 1-2 minutes.4. Remove the supernatant5. Remove the tube from the magnet6. Add 200 μL Pre-load solution and re-suspend7. Magnetic separation for 2 minutes, discard the supernatant8. Repeat step 6. and 7. two times. Equilibration to Adsorption buffer:1. Add 200 μL Adsorption Solution to the bead pellet and resuspend2. Magnetic separation for 2 min, discard the supernatant3. Wash the beads in Adsorption Solution two more timesAdsorption of Protein/Peptides:1. Add your sample containing approx. 10 μg protein or peptide to the washed MagSi-WAX beads and add Adsorption Solution to a total volume 100 μL. 2. Leave the beads at room temperature for about 5 min. for proper adsorption of the sample. Continuous shaking is of advantage.3. Magnetic separation until the liquid is totally clear, discard the supernatant4. Remove the tube from the magnet and add 200 μL Adsorption Solution. 5. Magnetic separation for two minutes, discard the supernatant. 6. Repeat washing (steps 4 +5) to a total of three times, discard the supernatantDesorption:A) Desorption for MS analysis: 1. Add 100 μL Washing Solution to the bead pellet and re-suspend (desalting step) 2. Magnetic separation for 2 min., discard the supernatant. 3. Add 10 μL Desorption Solution 1 to the beads, re-suspend 4. Magnetic separation for 2 min, remove the liquid for further analysis to a fresh Eppendorf tube. MALDI analysis: Typically, 1 μL of the eluate and 1 μL of a saturated solution of a proper MALDI-MS matrix is mixed (typically, alpha-cyano-4-hydroxy-cinnamic acid is used for peptides < 4000 Da for proteins > 4000 Da, sinapinic acid is used). Spotting of 1 μL of the mixture on a MALDI target generates reliable spectra.B) Desorption under native protein conditions: 1. Re-suspend the beads in the 20 μL Desorption Solution 2a (0.02 M Tris, pH 6, 0.05 M NaCl). And incubate for 2 min. at room temperature. 2. Separate the beads at the magnetic separator and transfer the supernatant 3. Repeat step 1) and 2) with increasing salt concentrations of the Desorption Solution 2 b-e)Desalting after 4B:If desalting is needed after desorption under native conditions (4B), e.g. for mass spec analysis, we recommend the MagSi proteomics C4, C8 or C18 beads.
