This kit was used to quantify protein from fermentation cultures. RED660 was used due to its claims of improved stability and reproducibility compared to Coomassie/ Bradford assays.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Application

Protein quantification

Starting Material

Sterile filtered fungal supernatants diluted with 50 mM Sodium Acetate (pH 5.0)

Protocol Overview

Per RED660 Protein Assay SOP

Tips

None

Results Summary

We were unable to measure a signal from our culture supernatants using RED660*. Comparatively, Braford Assay worked fine (*Standards appeared to be fine.)

Additional Notes

Maybe a bad batch of assay reagent?
