摘要
The solubility of the protein-Coomassie brilliant blue (CBB) complex formed upon Bradford (Anal. Biochem. 72, 248-254, 1976) or Sedmak and Grossberg (Anal. Biochem. 79, 544-552, 1977) protein assay has been investigated by centrifugation or filtration of the assay mix within 10 min of adding dye reagent. The results show complete loss of color yield in the respective supernates and filtrates. This indicates that the protein-CBB complexes are insoluble at the time of absorbance measurement. Protein solubility in the dye reagent may dictate the relative response of the assay to an individual protein and the requirement for macromolecular structure. © 1992.
