Affinity Based Nano-Magnetic Particles for Purification of Recombinant Proteins in Form of Inclusion Body
Article in Iranian biomedical journal, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Protein purification is the most complicated issue in the downstream processes of recombinant protein production; therefore, improved selective purification methods are important. Affinity-based protein purification method using polyhistidine-tag (His-tag) and nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid (Ni-NTA) resins is one of the most common strategies. Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) can be used as a beneficial alternative for Ni-NTA resins. However, there is no data on the capability of MNPs for protein purification from inclusion bodies; this issue is studied here. Methods: Recombinant His-tagged proteins of enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP)-His and streptokinase (SK)-His were expressed in E. coli BL-21 (DE3) in soluble and inclusion body forms, respectively. MNPs including Fe3O4 magnetic core, SiO2 shell, and Ni2+ on the surface were synthesized by sol-gel and hydrothermal reactions and then characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, vibrating sample magnetometer, and scanning electron microscopy imaging. Both synthesized Fe3O4@NiSiO3 and Fe3O4@NixSiOy MNPs were employed to purify EGEP-His and SK-His under native and denaturing conditions, respectively. The quantity and purity of purified proteins were analyzed by micro-Bradford assay and SDS-PAGE, respectively. Results: Both synthesized MNPs were spherical and well-dispersed with the size ranging from 290 to 415 nm. Synthesized MNPs contained Fe3O4, SiO2 shell, and Ni2+ on their structures with suitable magnetization properties. Using Fe3O4@NiSiO3 and Fe3O4@NixSiOy yielded 192 and 188 µg/mg of SK-His, as compared to 207 and 195 µg/mg of EGFP-His, respectively. Conclusion: MNPs containing magnetic Fe3O4 core, SiO2 shell, and Ni2+on their surface are versatile alternatives for Ni-NTA resins in protein purification for proteins expressed in both soluble and inclusion body forms.
