title: The colorimetric estimation of protein by the Lowry technique using a liquid scintillation counter.
abstract: A comparison has been made of the use of the spectrophotometer and liquid scintillation counter for the colorimetric quantification of protein. The attenuation of photon detection from sealed miniature 14C radioactive standards enabled protein quantification over a concentration range far in excess of that achievable by the use of a spectrophotometer. Accuracy of quantification was high over the entire range of protein concentration. The ability of the technique to provide quick and accurate protein estimations is discussed.
