Term:
peptide/protein analysis by liquid phase colorimetry
Method of assessing the amount of one or more proteins (complex high molecular weight organic compounds containing carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur consisting of alpha-amino acids joined by peptide linkages) or peptides (low molecular weight compounds composed of at least two amino acids joined by peptide linkages) in a solution, using a technique in which the color of that solution, usually after a chemical or enzymatic reaction, is compared to standard colors.
