Assessment of EVs separated from human CSF by AC method
| Human CSF | EV Fraction | |
|---|---|---|
| Mode size (nm)a | 162 | 114 |
| Particle numbera,b | 7.9E+9 / 500μL CSF | 2.15E+9 / 100μL |
| Total protein (μg)b,c | 1125.73 | 1.78 |
| Protein identificationd | - | 700 |
| Particles/proteins (μg) | 7.02E+06 | 1.21E+09 |
Particle number and size of separated EVs were measured by Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA)
The starting material is 500ml of human CSF
The total protein levels were measured by BCA assay
The proteins were identified by LC-MS/MS for EV fraction, but CSF was not analyzed by LC-MS/MS.
