Automated protein quantification assays for the Opentrons Flex

4 Oct 2024

Measuring protein concentrations is an essential part of many routine lab procedures as it is often a prerequisite before subjecting samples to electrophoresis, chromatography, or other molecular biology analysis. Using a robotic liquid handler allows the lab not only to process higher throughput numbers of samples with minimal hands-on time, but also to establish a standardized protocol to consistently generate reliable test results in the long run. Explore three Opentrons Flex™ protocols that have been developed to respectively perform common protein quantification methods: BCA protein assays, Bradford protein assays and BCA peptide quantification assays.

Protein QuantificationThe detection and quantification of proteins in a sample is vital across life sciences, pharmaceutical research and clinical diagnostics, and a variety of equipment is available to scientists to simplify the workflow. Proteins of interest can be easily labeled and detected on light-based detection instruments. Immunoassay kits allow you to identify a specific protein of interest and protein detection beads or antibody microarrays allow you to identify multiple specific proteins at once. Protein interactions and enzyme activity can also be monitored with protein-protein interaction assays. Additionally, the biophysical characterization of proteins is made easy with biokinetic analyzers.
