Bradford Assay

Goals

Procedure

  • A stock solution of 1mg/mL BSA was prepared by adding 10mg of BSA into a 10mL volumetric flask and then filling it with autoclaved water. The actual concentration of the BSA stock was 1.02mg/mL as the actual weighed out BSA added was 10.2mg BSA.
  • In order to determine the concentration of the ADA collected in the fracs, standard solutions had to be made and run through the UV-Vis first. Seven standard solutions were prepared with 1X Bradford Reagent, varying amounts of BSA stock, and autoclaved water. These solutions were analyzed in the UV-Vis from 500-800 nm.

  • Linear regression was used to determine the equation of the line


  • When these samples were originally run, they produced absorbances over 1 which resulted in us needing to dilute the solution further. As a result, all solutions were diluted by a half to 715μL of original solution with an additional 715μL of water.
