TLDR
A rapid and accurate method for the estimation of protein concentration is essential in many fields of protein study, but is susceptible to interference from a wide range of compounds commonly present in biological extracts.Abstract:
A rapid and accurate method for the estimation of protein concentration is essential in many fields of protein study. The Lowry method ( Chapter 1 in vol. 1 of this series) has been widely used, but is susceptible to interference from a wide range of compounds commonly present in biological extracts. Although interference can be avoided by trichloracetic acid precipitation of the protein prior to assay, this lengthens the procedure.read more

Scaffold functionalization to support a tissue biocompatibility
TL;DR: The most applied methods for covalent and non-covalent functionalization of scaffold surface with biomimetic molecules, including bioactive proteins, peptides, and polysaccharides to improve scaffold biocompatibility are illustrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrolysis of Corn Stover by Talaromyces cellulolyticus Enzymes: Evaluation of the Residual Enzymes Activities Through the Process.
TL;DR: The results indicate that cellulases from T. cellulolyticus are less affected by the high dry matter consistency and the use of additives could increase the total activity by around 50% and β-glucosidase capacity by 10–15%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antioxidant and antidiabetic activities of vanadium binding proteins purified from the sea squirt Halocynthia roretzi.
TL;DR: Two vanadium binding proteins from blood plasma and intestine were purified through (NH4)2SO4 precipitation, and DEAE-Sepharose ion exchange and Sephacryl S-200 HR gel filtration chromatography, in that order and exerted strong inhibitory activity against Saccharomyces cerevisiae and mild against Bacillus stearothermophilus and rat intestinal α-glucosidase.

The in vitro effects of caffeine on viability, cycle cycle profiles, proliferation, and apoptosis of glioblastomas.
TL;DR: Caffeine inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis in glioblastoma cells, and provides the experimental basis for further studies of potential role of caffeine in the treatment of glooblastomas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Micorrização e indução de quitinases e β-1,3-glucanases e resistência à fusariose em porta-enxerto de videira
TL;DR: SO4 plantlets inoculated with G. intraradices-inoculated SO4 grapevine plantlets showed decreased symptoms of Fusarium infection, which indicates that the mycorrhizal fungus promotes chitinase and β-1,3-glucanase activities leading to pathogen suppression or inhibition.

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.

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.

A rapid, sensitive, and versatile assay for protein using Coomassie brilliant blue G250
TL;DR: An assay for proteins in solution that depends on the conversion of Coomassie brilliant blue G250 in dilute acid from a brownish-orange to an intense blue color has high reproducibility and can detect less than 1.0 μg of albumin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Refinement of the coomassie blue method of protein quantitation. A simple and linear spectrophotometric assay for less than or equal to 0.5 to 50 microgram of protein.
TL;DR: The Coomassie brilliant blue G assay for proteins described by Bradford (1976) (Anal Biochem72, 248) was reexamined and it was found that the extinction coefficient of the dye-protein complex solution remained constant over the protein concentration range of 08 to 10 μg/ml of solution.
