The Bradford protein assay (also known as the Coomassie protein assay) was developed by Marion M. Bradford in 1976. [1] It is a quick and accurate [2] spectroscopic analytical procedure used to measure the concentration of protein in a solution. The reaction is dependent on the amino acid composition of the measured proteins.
This method is able to detect as low as 25 μg/ml and up to 2000 μg/ml of protein in a 65 ul sample, using standard protocol. This method may be preferred for samples containing detergents or other reducing agents. This method has a fast detection speed and low protein-to-protein variability in comparison to the BCA or Coomassie (Bradford ...
The Bradford assay uses the spectral properties of Coomassie brilliant blue G-250 to estimate the amount of protein in a solution. [19] A protein sample is added to a solution of the dye in phosphoric acid and ethanol. Under the acid conditions the dye is normally a brownish colour but on binding to the protein the blue form of the dye is produced.
Several reliable methods for quantifying protein have been developed to simplify the process. These methods include Warburg–Christian method, Lowry assay, and Bradford assay (all of which rely on absorbance properties of macromolecules). Bradford assay method uses a dye to bind to protein. Most commonly, Coomassie brilliant blue G-250 dye is ...
An alternative method for label free protein quantification in clear liquid is cuvette-based SPR technique, that simultaneously measures the refractive index ranging 1.0 to 1.6 nD and concentration of the protein ranging from 0.5 μL to 2 mL in volume. This system consists of the calibrated optical filter with very high angular resolution and ...
Marion Mckinley Bradford (October 28, 1946 - May 3, 2021) was an American scientist [1] who developed and patented the Bradford protein assay, [2] a method to quickly quantify the amount of protein in a sample. [3] [4] His paper describing the method is among the most cited scholarly articles of all time. [5] [6] [7]

Label-free quantification is a method in mass spectrometry that aims to determine the relative amount of proteins in two or more biological samples. Unlike other methods for protein quantification, label-free quantification does not use a stable isotope containing compound to chemically bind to and thus label the protein. [1] [2]
