    Estimation of protein concentration Introduction Protein assays are designed to measure the total protein in a solution. Protein assays are quantitative if the protein to be assayed is available in sufficient quantity such that one is able to use it to create a standard curve. If this cannot be achieved‚ then a standard protein‚ such as albumin‚ may be used for a standard curve with the understanding that the results on the unknown protein are semi-quantitative. Since most proteins are not available

    During protein digestion‚ a water molecule is added which breaks down the carbonyl-carbon-nitrogen sin the peptide bonds of proteins causing the liberation of amino acids. This process is referred to as proteolysis. Water molecules break down the carbonyl-carbon-nitrogen single bond (peptide bond) that holds single amino acid molecules together (Caroline Ritchie‚ 2013. This process is called hydrolysis and is catalysed by protease. The three main protease enzymes produced during digestion are pepsin

    Question 5: The chromophore in this assay is Coomassie Brilliant Blue dye. Question 6: It is important to set up a blank to separate the solute (saline) from the protein (stock). By subtracting the absorbance of the blank (which has no protein present) from the original absorbance the absorbance of the protein at each concentration will remain. Question 7: The Lowry method relies on two different reactions. The first is the formation of a copper ion complex with amide bonds‚ forming reduced

    Why are proteins important? Proteins can easily be addressed as one of the most important molecules in animal cells. There are many varieties of protein molecules which allow a vast range of biological activities in the cell.( Williams‚ G.(2000))’Proteins are big compound with large molecular masses’’(Williams‚ G.(2000)) whose main chemical constituents are hydrogen‚ carbon ‚oxygen and nitrogen. A protein structure consists of a specific sequence of amino acids called the

    assumptions about her protein needs are unrealistic based on her current weight. Erin’s protein consumption is too low for her weight. This is roughly 13% of her kcalorie intake which is closer to the lower end of the ranges of 10-35 percent. This is unrealistic because she is not consuming enough calories of protein for her weight. If you calculate her weight by height you can clearly she needs more protein. Erin’s weight 118lbs /2.2ib/kg= 54 kg‚ so know take 54kg x 0.8g/kg= 43.2g protein. (Understanding
