Hi I hope you're doing fine.

I need help with this questions please!

thank you!

Expert Solution
Step 1

Bradford reagent in Bradford assay is used to to assess the amount of protein in a sample. The reagent binds to proteins, and the binding causes the dye to undergo a color change in the visible spectrum, with the absorbance maximum moving from 470 to 595 nm.
