Bradford Assay
Lysozyme stock solution (25.85mg) in buffer titrated to 7.505 with 1M HCl
[Tris buffer]: (25.85 mg)/( 5mL) => 5.17 mg/mL => 5,170 μg/mL
The stock was then diluted to 50ug/mL using distilled water.
M1*V1=M2*V2 => (5170 μg/mL)*(V1)=(50 μg/mL)*(50 mL) => V1 = 0.580 μL
6 Assay samples were then created from diluted stock
*1μg/mL
- 600 μL of Bio-Rad Protein Assay reagent
- M1*V1=M2*V2 => (5170 μg/mL)*(V1)=(1 μg/mL)*(3 mL) => 0.06 mL => 60 μL diluted Lysozyme stock
- 3mL total - 0.06mL stock - 0.6 mL reagent = 2.34 mL water
*3μg/mL
- 600 μL of Bio-Rad Protein Assay reagent
- M1*V1=M2*V2 => (5170 μg/mL)*(V1)=(3 μg/mL)*(3 mL) => 0.18 mL => 180 μL diluted Lysozyme stock
- 3mL total - 0.180 mL stock - 0.6 mL reagent = 2.22 mL water
*4μg/mL
- 600 μL of Bio-Rad Protein Assay reagent
- M1*V1=M2*V2 => (5170 μg/mL)*(V1)=(4 μg/mL)*(3 mL) => 0.24 mL => 240 μL diluted Lysozyme stock
- 3mL total - 0.24mL stock - 0.6 mL reagent = 2.16 mL water
*5μg/mL
- 600 μL of Bio-Rad Protein Assay reagent
- M1*V1=M2*V2 => (5170 μg/mL)*(V1)=(5 μg/mL)*(3 mL) => 0.3 mL => 300 μL diluted Lysozyme stock
- 3mL total - 0.3mL stock - 0.6 mL reagent = 2.1 mL water
*6μg/mL
- 600 μL of Bio-Rad Protein Assay reagent
- M1*V1=M2*V2 => (5170 μg/mL)*(V1)=(6 μg/mL)*(3 mL) => 0.36 mL => 360 μL diluted Lysozyme stock
- 3mL total - 0.36mL stock - 0.6 mL reagent = 2.04 mL water
*10μg/mL
- 600 μL of Bio-Rad Protein Assay reagent
- M1*V1=M2*V2 => (5170 μg/mL)*(V1)=(10 μg/mL)*(3 mL) => 0.6 mL => 600 μL diluted Lysozyme stock
- 3mL total - 0.6mL stock - 0.6 mL reagent = 1.8 mL water
Detailed instructions can be found in Dr. Harting's notebook here. The one modification to the procedure here is that the sample volumes were 3 mL (as opposed to 1mL), and 25mg of lysozyme was added to a total of 5mL of buffer.
