BCA protein assay in a 96 well plate. The bicinchoninic acid assay (BCA assay), also known as the Smith assay, after its inventor, Paul K. Smith at the Pierce Chemical Company, [1] now part of Thermo Fisher Scientific, is a biochemical assay for determining the total concentration of protein in a solution (0.5 μg/mL to 1.5 mg/mL), similar to Lowry protein assay, Bradford protein assay or ...
Heroin users are known to use ascorbic acid as a means to convert heroin base to a water-soluble salt so that it can be injected. [21] As justified by its reaction with iodine, it is used to negate the effects of iodine tablets in water purification. It reacts with the sterilized water, removing the taste, color, and smell of the iodine.
ISO/IEC 15504 is the reference model for the maturity models (consisting of capability levels which in turn consist of the process attributes and further consist of generic practices) against which the assessors can place the evidence that they collect during their assessment, so that the assessors can give an overall determination of the organization's capabilities for delivering products ...
For example, in a reaction between potassium permanganate and sodium sulfite: Unbalanced reaction: KMnO 4 + Na 2 SO 3 + H 2 O → MnO 2 + Na 2 SO 4 + KOH Reduction: 3 e − + 2 H 2 O + MnO − 4 → MnO 2 + 4 OH − Oxidation: 2 OH − + SO 2− 3 → SO 2− 4 + H 2 O + 2 e −. Here, 'spectator ions' (K +, Na +) were omitted from the half ...
Cover of the European Pharmacopoeia, 11th Edition. The European Pharmacopoeia [1] (Pharmacopoeia Europaea, Ph. Eur.) is a major regional pharmacopoeia which provides common quality standards throughout the pharmaceutical industry in Europe to control the quality of medicines, and the substances used to manufacture them.

Arginine has a charged guanidino group and lysine a charged alkyl amino group, and are fully protonated at pH 7. Histidine's imidazole group has a pK a of 6.0, and is only around 10% protonated at neutral pH. Because histidine is easily found in its basic and conjugate acid forms it often participates in catalytic proton transfers in enzyme ...
The inverse electron demand Diels–Alder reaction, or DA INV or IEDDA [1] is an organic chemical reaction, in which two new chemical bonds and a six-membered ring are formed. It is related to the Diels–Alder reaction , but unlike the Diels–Alder (or DA) reaction, the DA INV is a cycloaddition between an electron-rich dienophile and an ...
The reduction of CO 2 to CO is ordinarily a difficult and slow reaction: CO 2 + 2 e − + 2 H + → CO + H 2 O. The redox potential for this reaction near pH 7 is about −0.53 V versus the standard hydrogen electrode. The nickel-containing enzyme carbon monoxide dehydrogenase catalyses this process. [26]
