Abstract

The invention provides a kit for use in assaying protein, which comprises: PA1 an alkaline copper solution containing a tartrate; and PA1 a solution of Folin reagent. An alkaline copper solution containing tartrate has surprisingly been found to remain stable for several months. This allows a kit to be provided for use in a method of protein assay, in which the alkaline copper solution is provided ready-made up for immediate use in the method.
