Protein ladders are a set of standards known as molecular weight proteins that are utilized to identify the approximate size of a protein molecule run on a PAGE gel electrophoresis. The challenges in running the ladders are the choice of appropriate protein standard as it is used as visual evidence of protein migration, transfer efficiency, and positive control. Suitable protein markers can be selected on the basis of required properties and applications, i.e., fluorescent ladder, IEF, 2D SDS-PAGE ladder, natural ladder with an isoelectric point, and optimized ladders for Western Blot chemiluminescence detection. The key factors for running a distinct protein ladder are buffer conditions, charge/voltage at migration time, and the gel's concentration.

Contamination can affect cell characteristics, i.e., growth, metabolism, and morphology leading to unreliable and erroneous experimental data. Depending on the source of contaminants, one can detect contamination by using a light microscope, gram stain, isothermal amplification, or PCR. Bacteria and fungi can usually be identified by optical microscopy. Mycoplasma in cell cultures cannot be detected visually. Hence, these microbes can go unnoticed for long periods and are determined using dedicated assays. Early and rapid identification of contaminants is vital to detect, handle and prevent contamination for good cell-culture practices. However, detection and identification can be challenging and tricky based on usual visual identifications. Hence it is essential to use a standard contamination detection kit to detect and maintain best practices.

In ChIP, the most vital step is the binding of an antibody and choosing the right antibody. The binding affinity of different types of immunoglobulins to protein A or G differs significantly. Henceforth, it is recommended to choose either protein A or protein G coated beads. If you do not see any product in the positive control, add 5–10 μg of chromatin and 1–5 μg of antibody to each IP reaction and incubate with antibody overnight and an additional 2 hr after adding Protein G/A beads. If no product is observed in the experimental sample, add more DNA to the PCR reaction or increase the number of amplification cycles. Furthermore, if you have any problem with antibodies, make sure to use the ChIP-validated antibody.
