High Sensitivity Protein Quantitation Assay Kit

Background: Protein quantitation of aqueous samples is a fundamental assay performed in most biology labs; an essential tool during protein purification, chromatography, recombinant protein expression, peptide synthesis, etc. Fluorescence-based protein determination methods provide the highest sensitivity when compared to standard colorimetric assays (Biuret, Lowry, BCA, and Bradford). High Sensitivity Protein Quantitation Assay Kit utilizes a fluorogenic detection dye to measure primary aliphatic amines (peptides or proteins) in various samples with much greater sensitivity than the conventional colorimetric protein determination methods. The assay is performed in a 96-well microtiter plate format and measured within 15 minutes. Each kit provides sufficient reagents to perform up to 200 assays, including blanks, standards and unknown samples. The kit contains a BSA standard and has a detection sensitivity limit of < 5 ug/mL.

Small volumes of High Sensitivity Protein Quantitation assay kit vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

MBS168650 is an assay kit targeting High Sensitivity Protein Quantitation. Also known as High Sensitivity Protein Quantitation Assay Kit (Fluorometric).
