The Bradford protein assay (also known as the Coomassie protein assay) was developed by Marion M. Bradford in 1976. [1] It is a quick and accurate [2] spectroscopic analytical procedure used to measure the concentration of protein in a solution. The reaction is dependent on the amino acid composition of the measured proteins.
The first published attempt to use plasma emissions as a source for spectroscopic analysis were in 1956 by Eugen Bădărău. [6] In 1964 Stanley Greenfield working at Albright & Wilson was the first to use ICP for non experimental analysis. [6] The first commercial machine was produced by KONTRON in 1975. [6]
FAST (Fluorescence-Activating and absorption-Shifting Tag) is a genetically-encoded protein tag which, upon reversible combination with a fluorogenic chromophore, allows the reporting of proteins of interest. FAST, a small 14 kDa protein, was engineered from the photoactive yellow protein (PYP) by directed evolution.
The general expression Qualitative Analysis [...] refers to analyses in which substances are identified or classified on the basis of their chemical or physical properties, such as chemical reactivity, solubility, molecular weight, melting point, radioactivity properties (emission, absorption), mass spectra, nuclear half-life, etc. Quantitative Analysis refers to analyses in which the amount ...
BCA protein assay in a 96 well plate. The bicinchoninic acid assay (BCA assay), also known as the Smith assay, after its inventor, Paul K. Smith at the Pierce Chemical Company, [1] now part of Thermo Fisher Scientific, is a biochemical assay for determining the total concentration of protein in a solution (0.5 μg/mL to 1.5 mg/mL), similar to Lowry protein assay, Bradford protein assay or ...
Whereas the concept of water activity is widely known and utilized in the applied biosciences, its complement—the protein activity which quantitates protein–protein interactions—is much less familiar to bioscientists as it is more difficult to determine in dilute solutions of proteins; protein activity is also much harder to determine for ...
In contrast to MRI, structural biology studies do not directly generate an image, but rely on complex computer calculations to generate three-dimensional molecular models. Currently most samples are examined in a solution in water, but methods are being developed to also work with solid samples. Data collection relies on placing the sample ...
The emission spectrum of iron. Emission is a process by which a substance releases energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation. Emission can occur at any frequency at which absorption can occur, and this allows the absorption lines to be determined from an emission spectrum.
