Two different automated procedures for protein microdetermination by the Lowry method have been devised to analyze samples with high and low concentrations of nonionic detergents. Autoanalytical monitoring of the protein concentration of column effluents has been achieved by substituting 50 mM Trici

for protein concentration measurement has been automated to permit assay of samples with concentrations from 1 to 400 @g/ml. Calibration with solutions of bovine serum albumin resulted in a nonlinear (quadratic) curve. The quantity of color developed in the assay was found to be strongly dependent o
The Lowry protein assay was directly adapted for use on the Cobas-Bio centrifugal analyzer resulting in a 50% reduction of the coefficients of variation of the manual method. It was also demonstrated that the reaction need not be pursued to its endpoint and that absorbance readings taken immediately
Despite reports of its susceptibility to various interfering factors, the Folin Phenol protein quantification method of O. H. Lowry, N. J. Rosebrough, A. L. Farr, and R. J. Randall (1951, J. Biol. Chem. 193, 265-275) remains the most convenient and accurate method for routine protein determinations.
