The assay bases on the bichinchoninic acid method (1). Proteins reduce alkaline Cu(II) to Cu(I). Bichinchoninic acid forms a purple complex with Cu(I) with an absorbance maximum at 562 nm. The absorbance is directly proportional to protein concentration.
- Fast and sensitive assay: linear detection range from 0.5 - 20 µg protein/ml
- Easy to use: contains ready-to-use reagents and protein standard
- Compatible with many detergents
- Less binding variation between different proteins than Bradford assay
