By the way, is it possible to do the ammonium sulphate step together with
the IPA step ?
Like first take my protein solution, then adding ice cold IPA, stirring and
then adding ammonium sulphate in different concentrations ? This way I could
do a fractionated precipitation with ammonium sulphate.
Maybe its a little implausible but i would be really neat..
