The Lowry procedure has been modified for use in the presence of Triton X-100 (TX-loo) by the addition of 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate. The method is applicable to samples containing 40-120 pg protein.

โฆ Synopsis
A procedure is described for the precipitation of protein from detergent-treated fractions of mammalian tissues. The protein in Triton X-100 and deoxycholatetreated fractions is precipitated by addition of sodium dodecyl sulfate in amounts nearly equivalent to that of the detergents, followed by trichloroacetic acid to 5%, and is then collected by low-speed centrifugation. The recovery of protein is virtually 100%. Tissue protein precipitated in this way can be washed nearly free of labeled leucine. The method is convenient, inexpensive, and well-suited for the isolation of many samples.

In a pH 7.0 buffer solution containing 0.0020% Triton X-100 CPZ yields a sensitive polarographic wave at -1.90 V, which can be used to determine trace amounts of the drug, the detection limit being 4.2 ร 10 -9 mol/liter. Using potentiostatic coulometry, chronocoulometry, and cyclic voltammetry the e
A calorimetric method for the determination of orthophosphate in the presence of Triton X-100 and the extent of their mutual interference is presented. Effects of albumin and trichloroacetic acid on the reaction are also examined. The method is based on the very sensitive reaction developed for dete
