Hello everyone! I am going to do a live/dead assay for my cells and I saw that I can use both fluorescence and absorbance as my detection method. Is there a difference in the results depending on the method? Is one method preferred over the other in certain situations?

I am currently using a recombinant protein which shows metal-dependent DNase activity. Is it possible to pinpoint the source of the DNase activity after protein purification? More specifically, can I ensure that the DNase activity is not because of nuclease contamination from the E.coli that might have persisted and passed with the protein of interest during purification?

The biggest problem in isolating RNA from gram-positive bacteria is the disruption of the cell wall. A lot of protocols employ enzymatic digestion (pretreatment) which may affect gene expression patterns of certain genes. Therefore physical disruption using beads could be the best alternative.
