We also have alternatives to pesticides, through natural resistance techniques such as genetically modified foods. But in third world countries farmers ...
Evaluation of Protein Assay Procedures.
... assay is better to be used to estimate protein concentration before a more sensitive method is used, so the protein could be made more dilute if needed. The Folin- Lowry Method was found to be very sensitive and accurate. It can be seen from the graphs that the linear regression and the linear ...
