Determination of serum proteins by means of the biuret reaction.

TLDR
An investigation of the biochemical changes following experimental liver injury felt the need of a simple, rapid, and accurate method for determining the protein fractions in small amounts of serum and began with Kingsley’s biuret procedure.

A rapid and sensitive method for the quantitation of microgram quantities of protein utilizing the principle of protein-dye binding

TL;DR: This assay is very reproducible and rapid with the dye binding process virtually complete in approximately 2 min with good color stability for 1 hr with little or no interference from cations such as sodium or potassium nor from carbohydrates such as sucrose.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assay for lipid peroxides in animal tissues by thiobarbituric acid reaction

TL;DR: Using this method, the liped peroxide level in the liver of rats suffering from carbon tetrachloride intoxication was investigated and was in good agreement with previously reported data obtained by measuring diene content.
PatentDOI

Measurement of protein using bicinchoninic acid

TL;DR: This new method maintains the high sensitivity and low protein-to-protein variation associated with the Lowry technique and demonstrates a greater tolerance of the bicinchoninate reagent toward such commonly encountered interferences as nonionic detergents and simple buffer salts.
Journal ArticleDOI

The distribution and chemical composition of ultracentrifugally separated lipoproteins in human serum

TL;DR: The relatively low density of the lipoproteins was utilized by Lindgren, Elliott, and Gofman to separate them from the other serum proteins by ultracentrifugal flotation, and quantitation was subsequently performed by refractometric methods in the analytical ultracentRifuge.

Spectrophotometric and turbidimetric methods for measuring proteins

Ennis Layne
TL;DR: The turbidity produced when protein is mixed with low concentrations of any of the common protein precipitants can be used as an index of protein concentration, and this advantage is used to eliminate the interference of nucleic acids in the estimation of protein.
