- Bradford reagent: Dissolve 100 mg Coomassie Brilliant Blue G-250 in 50 ml 95% ethanol, add 100 ml 85% (w/v) phosphoric acid. Dilute to 1 liter when the dye has completely dissolved, and filter through Whatman #1 paper just before use. (Optional) 1 M NaOH (to be used if samples are not readily soluble in the color reagent).

Learn how to use the Bradford method to determine protein concentration by measuring the absorbance of Coomassie Brilliant Blue G-250 dye. Find reagent preparation, protocol, and analysis instructions.
The Bradford method is a quantitative protein assay method, based on the binding of a dye, Coomassie Brilliant Blue, to a protein sample, and comparing this binding to a standard curve generated by the reaction of known amounts of a standard protein, usually BSA.
Learn how to use the Bradford assay to determine the total protein concentration in protein purification samples. Follow the step-by-step instructions, watch the procedural videos, and access the virtual lab bench for materials and reagents.
Bradford stock solution 30 mL: 16.67 × dilution of the stock: The reagent should be a light brown color. Filter through Whatman No. 1 paper. This working reagent is stable for several weeks (with refiltering as needed) when stored at room temperature in a brown glass bottle.
Principle. Figure 1. Coomassie brilliant blue G-250, the binding dye for the Bradford Method. Color reaction of protein and Bradford reagent. The Bradford assay, a colorimetric protein assay, is based on an absorbance shift of the dye Coomassie brilliant blue G-250.
Prepare the Bradford reagent according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, the Bradford reagent can be prepared by dissolving 100 mg of Coomassie Brilliant Blue G-250 in 50 mL of 95% ethanol.
