Figure 3. Comparison of Extraction methods.

Figure 3

To determine an effective method of protein extraction from FFPE (3a) and FR (3b) tissue for matrix protein identification, three methods common to tissue decellularization approaches were examined include the use of an acid labile detergent (MAX), a neutral pH anionic detergent solution (SDS) and an alkaline non-ionic detergent solution (TX). Data are presented as a Venn diagram to illustrate overlap of protein identifications between the extraction methods. 3a. Numbers of matrix proteins identified from FFPE tissue using MAX (n= 63), SDS (n= 81) and TX (n=89). 3b. Numbers of matrix proteins identified from FR tissue using MAX (n= 66), SDS (n= 80) and TX (n=79).
