Description: | The Bradford Protein Assay Kit is a ready-to-use formulation of the popular assay reagent originally described by Bradford in 1976. When mixed with a protein solution, the acidic coomassie-dye reagent changes color from brown to blue in proportion the amount of protein present in the sample. Protein determinations are made by comparison to the color response of protein assay standards, usually prepared as a series of known dilutions of bovine serum albumin (BSA). The kit includes Bradford Protein Assay Reagent and BSA standard. It is compatible with many of the salts, solvents, buffers, reducing chemicals and chelating agents often used in protein samples. Assays can be performed in cuvettes, or microplates. |
