High linearity: linear over a wide range of protein concentrations between 25-2000 mug/ml.
Shelf Life: 12 months
Background: MyBioSource's BCA Protein Assay kit is useful for colorimetric detection and quantification of total protein content even in the presence of detergents. The Kit is based on the chelation of bicinchoninic acid (BCA) with the cuprous cation (Cu+1), which is generated by reduction of cupric cation (Cu+2) with the protein in an alkaline medium. The amount of purple-colored product formed during the reaction can be correlated to the amount of protein in the assay. The Cu+1-BCA chelate is a water-soluble complex and exhibits a strong absorbance at 562 nm that is linear over a wide range of protein concentrations between 25-2000 mug/ml. In general, protein concentrations are estimated with reference to a commonly used protein standard. This BCA Protein Assay Kit also includes Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as a protein standard for estimation of total protein content of the samples.

Product Notes
The BCA Protein Assay Kit II (Catalog #AAA841734) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "BCA Protein Assay Kit II, Assay Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
