Abstract
Chromatography in all its formats plays an important role in proteomics research. The search for protein biomarkers for different diseases has been an active area of research. The dynamic concentration range and the large number of proteins in a proteome require the development of multidimensional separation strategies to allow for the identification of the largest number of proteins. Strong cation-exchange chromatography (SCX) has been used extensively for the fractionation of proteins and peptides. This chapter provides a detailed description for the SCX fractionation of complex proteome samples.
