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

MicroRNA‑877 acts as a tumor suppressor by directly targeting eEF2K in renal cell carcinoma
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that miR-877 suppresses the proliferation and migration abilities of RCC cells by modulating the eEF2K/eEF2 signaling cascade, and may be considered a potential biomarker for the diagnosis of R CC.

Continuous ultrafiltration membrane reactor coupled with nanofiltration for the enzymatic synthesis and purification of galactosyl-oligosaccharides
TL;DR: In this paper, a continuous enzymatic production of galactosyl-oligosaccharides (GOS) from a lactose substrate in an ultrafiltration membrane reactor (UMR) coupled with a nanofiltration separation system (CPNSS) was investigated.

Influence of nitrogen fertilisation on pasture culturable rhizobacteria occurrence and the role of environmental factors on their potential PGPR activities
TL;DR: The influence of environmental factors that are typical of Chilean And isols on rhizobacterial communities will provide better management practices to enhance their PGPR functions as well as a better selection biofertilisers to be used in Chilean Andisols.

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.
