  32. APPENDIX 3 Summary The experiment mainly focuses on the extraction of protein from the brain tissue. As the sample taken for extraction is very less considering its low availability it is very important to get the maximum proteome from the lower quantity sample. So the extraction method discussed here shows maximum efficiency in extraction of the protein from the brain sample.
