Mass-spectrometry-based absolute protein quantification uses labeled quantification concatamer (QconCAT) as internal standards (ISs). To calculate the amount of protein(s), the ion intensity ratio between the analyte and its cognate IS is compared in each biological sample. The present protocol describes a systematic workflow to design, produce, and purify QconCATs and to quantify soluble proteins in Pseudomonas putida KT2440. Our methodology enables the quantification of detectable peptide and serves as a versatile platform to produce ISs for different biological systems.

Contrast transfer function (CTF) estimation is essential to the data processing workflow of cryo-electron tomography (cryoET). Here, we present a protocol for CTF estimation of the cryoET tilt series with CTFMeasure. CTFMeasure can estimate the CTF parameters together with the absolute tilt angle offset of the sample.

This review describes mass spectrometry (MS)-based approaches for the absolute quantification of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), focusing on technical challenges in sample treatment and calibration. Therapeutic mAbs are crucial for treating cancer and inflammatory, infectious, and autoimmune diseases. We trace their development from hybridoma technology and the first murine mAbs in 1975 to today's chimeric and fully human mAbs.

Purpose: This study aims to compare the biomechanical performance of elastic and static suture-based cerclage systems to traditional screw constructs in the setting of modeled glenoid bony augmentation.
Methods: Biomechanical testing was conducted on polyurethane cellular foam blocks modeling a 20 % glenoid defect repaired with a coracoid graft. Constructs consisted of an elastic suture-based cerclage, static suture-based cerclage, and a two-screw construct.
Development and validation of machine-learning models for predicting the risk of hypertriglyceridemia in critically ill patients receiving propofol sedation using retrospective data: a protocol.

Introduction: Propofol is a widely used sedative-hypnotic agent for critically ill patients requiring invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). Despite its clinical benefits, propofol is associated with increased risks of hypertriglyceridemia. Early identification of patients at risk for propofol-associated hypertriglyceridemia is crucial for optimising sedation strategies and preventing adverse outcomes.

We report a synthetic protocol that yields hydrogen-terminated 2D silicon nanosheets with greatly reduced siloxane (, Si-O-Si, OSi) content. These nanosheets displayed weak, broad photoluminescence centered near 610 nm with a low absolute photoluminescence quantum yield (as low as 0.2%).
