Note. Explanations for table 1: components 1-5 are used in the preparation of both buffers, item 6 is used in the preparation of lysis buffer with 6M guanidine chloride, items 7 and 8 - lysis buffer with 8M urea / 2M thiourea.

* Bacterial protease inhibitor cocktail is added immediately before the start of the work. The pH of the lysis buffer with urea / thiourea is 8.5-9.0. The pH of the lysis buffer with guanidine thiocyanate is 7.5-8.0.
