Quick Reference

Extinction Coefficients

  • Trp: 5,500 M^-1 cm^-1
  • Tyr: 1,490 M^-1 cm^-1
  • Cys-Cys: 125 M^-1 cm^-1
  • Typical protein: 20,000-80,000

Concentration Ranges

  • Bradford: 0.02-0.2 mg/mL
  • BCA: 0.2-2 mg/mL
  • Lowry: 0.01-1 mg/mL
  • A280: depends on epsilon value

Storage Tips

  • >1 mg/mL usually stable
  • Add glycerol for freezing
  • pH near pI may precipitate
  • Check for aggregation at high conc
