Lyophilization Extraction

Lyophilization extraction is a biological sample-preparation approach that combines freeze-drying with solvent-based recovery of compounds from a dried sample. The material is frozen, placed under reduced pressure, and dehydrated as ice sublimates directly into vapor; the resulting porous matrix can then be rehydrated or treated with a solvent to release target molecules. This process helps preserve biological materials during storage while removing water that can interfere with extraction and analysis. Researchers apply lyophilization extraction to tissues, cells, microbial samples, and other biological matrices when concentrating metabolites, proteins, or small molecules for downstream biochemical and analytical studies.

Here, we present detailed protocols for solid-state amide hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (ssHDX-MS) and solid-state photolytic labeling mass spectrometry (ssPL-MS) for proteins in solid powders. The methods provide high-resolution information on protein conformation and interactions in the amorphous solid-state, which may be useful in formulation design.

Extraction Extraction is a common technique used in organic chemistry to isolate a target compound. In the extraction process, a solute is transferred from one phase to another to separate it from unreacted starting materials or impurities. Extraction is also used to facilitate the isolation of a solute from a reaction solvent that is difficult to remove by evaporation, such as a solvent with a high boiling point. Generally, there are three types of extractions. First, in solid-liquid...
