Bradford protein assay

This article is about the scientific procedure. For other uses, see Bradford (disambiguation).

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.
