A simple technique for eliminating interference by detergents in the Lowry method of protein determination

The presence of nonionic and cationic detergents interfered in the Lowry method of protein estimation by causing precipitate formation. The addition of 0.5% sodium dodecylsulphate in the alkali reagent prevented this precipitation without affecting colour development, and allowed the method to be us...

Zusammenfassung:The presence of nonionic and cationic detergents interfered in the Lowry method of protein estimation by causing precipitate formation. The addition of 0.5% sodium dodecylsulphate in the alkali reagent prevented this precipitation without affecting colour development, and allowed the method to be used on detergent treated membrane preparations.
