Microdetermination of proteins using m-carboxychlorophosphonazo as detection probe by enhanced resonance light scattering spectroscopy.
Proteins can be determined using a common spectrofluorometer to detect the intensity of resonance light scattering (RLS). Under acidic conditions, the reaction between m-carboxychlorophosphonazo (CPA-mK) and proteins enhances the weak light scattering of CPA-mK drastically. This enhanced intensity is proportional to the concentration of proteins. The linear ranges for human serum albumin are 0.5-35.0 microg/mL, with detection limits of 0.104 microg/mL. The method yields results comparable to those of the calorimetric method using Coomassie Brilliant Blue G-250 (CBB) with relative standard deviations of 0.72-2.10% (n = 10). There is almost no interference by amino acids and most of the metal ions.
