Advion Bc Assay Protein Quantitation Kit, Sufficient Reagents For 500 Tests/Tube INCMUP40840A

BC Assay Protein Quantitation Kit Sufficient reagents for 500 tests/tube or 5,000 microplate assays High quality reagents for the determination of protein concentration by the bicinchoninic acid method. Proteins have traditionally been quantified by the spectrometric measurement of a color produced by a reaction between proteins and a reagent. The 1980's saw the introduction by Paul Smith(a) of a colorimetric protein assay derived on the Biuret reaction using the bicinchoninic acid, known as the BCA method. This improved formulation, the BC Assay, provides significant benefits over existing colorimetric assays, namely sensitivity, reagent stability, and detergent compatibility.
