Why is trichloroacetic acid used in protease assay?
To Stop The Reaction
To test wether a sample contains proteins what reagent should be used?
The Bradford reagent (Coomassie) is commonly used to detect if a sample contains protein. Coomassie will react with aromatic amino acids (phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan) to turn from a dull red color to a bright blue color. This assay is dependant on the amount of aromatic amino acids present, but works well as a "quick and dirty" indicator of the presence of a protein. The bicinchonic acid assay (BCA assay), while more expensive than the Bradford assay, more accurately detects the presence of the peptide bond present in proteins, so it can be used to not only detect proteins which lack aromatic amino acid residues, but also can be used to more accurately determine the concentration of protein in a sample as not all proteins have the same amount of aromatic amino acids.
What is used to measure voltage?
a voltmeter is used to measure voltage
What is used to used to measure something that is not straight?
Tape measure
What does MTT represent in MTT assay?
The MTT in MTT assay represents Methylthiazol TetraZolium. It is part of the field of biochemistry and used to measure enzymes that reduce the tetrazolium dye.
What is the industrial uses of invertase enzyme?
invertase is used by industries to make the inside of chocolates runny. invertase transforms sucrose in glucose and fructose that is less concistent.

What is an assay ton?
An assay ton is a standard quantity used in assaying, the act of ascertaining the proportion of a particular metal in an ore or alloy, typically equal to 29.16 grams (short assay ton) or 32.6 grams (long assay ton).
Is manitol used in the assay of boric acid?
yes
What is a coliform count?
A coliform count is a microbiological assay of the number of coliform-type bacteria living in a certain sample. This is often used as a measure of fecal contamination of water supplies.
Why is trichloroacetic acid used in protease assay?
To Stop The Reaction
What is the intact PTH assay used for?
The assay for intact PTH and the N-terminal fragment, which are both measured at the same time, is more accurate in detecting sudden changes in the PTH level. For this reason, the N-terminal PTH assay is used to monitor a patient's response to therapy.
What is an assay dish?
An assay dish is a small square glass or plastic dish used in certain biological experiments involving bacteria, fungi, and cultures.
What amino acid residues are detected when the spectrophotometric assay is used to quantify proteins?
In Lowry spectrophotometric assay, tryosine, tryptophan, cysteine, histidine, and asparagine.
What is an assay pound?
An assay pound is a small standard weight used in assaying bullion, which varies between assayers, but is generally around half a gram.
What are some synonyms for the term 'titrate'?
"Assay", and "test" are potential synonyms for the word 'titrate'. The term is mainly used in the Chemistry to measure concentration of chemically active groups of substances such as acids and bases.
