Bca protein kit

Manufactured by Applygen
Sourced in China

The BCA Protein Kit is a reagent-based assay for the quantitative determination of total protein concentration. It utilizes the bicinchoninic acid (BCA) method to measure the reduction of copper ions by proteins in an alkaline environment, resulting in a purple-colored complex that can be measured spectrophotometrically.

Western Blot Analysis of Ovarian Cancer Cells

Ovarian cancer cells were collected and lyzed in 50 mL cell lysis buffer containing protease inhibitors. The cell lysates were separated on 12% SDS–PAGE. After the proteins were transferred onto polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes (Millipore, USA), we blocked the proteins with Tris-buffered saline (TBS) and 0.1% Tween 20 (TBS/T) which containing 5% bovine serum albumin. The PVDF membranes were incubated with specific primary antibodies (Anti-UBE2N antibody: Abcam, 1:1000; Anti-Fos antibody: Cell Signaling Technology, 1:1000; Anti-P53 antibody: Cell Signaling Technology, 1:1000; Anti-GAPDH antibody: Cell Signaling Technology, 1:1000) at room temperature for 1 hour or at 4°C overnight. The membranes were washed three times with TBS/T and then incubated with the appropriate HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature. The protein concentration was quantified using the BCA Protein Kit (Applygen, Beijing, China). The protein GAPDH was used as an internal control. The relative expression of other proteins was normalized against GAPDH.

Western Blot Analysis of RAS Proteins

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HCC cells and tissues from snap-frozen HepG2 xenografts were lysed using RIPA lysis buffer (Applygen Technologies, Beijing, China). Proteins were quantified using a BCA protein kit (Applygen). Proteins (50 μg) were separated by SDS-PAGE and transferred to an Immobilon-P membrane (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). The membranes were blocked in 5% non-fat milk and incubated with primary antibodies. The membranes were washed in PBS-T (PBS and 0.1% Tween-20) and incubated with a peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody (KPL, Gaithersburg, MD, USA), followed by development with a chemiluminescent substrate (Applygen). The Gel-Doc imaging system was used to scan images on Kodak film. Antibodies for KRAS, HRAS, and NRAS were purchased from Santa Cruz Biotechnology (Santa Cruz, CA, USA). GAPDH and beta-actin (β-action) antibodies were obtained from Proteintech (Chicago, IL, USA).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
