Simple, direct and automation-ready procedure for measuring copper concentrations in a wide range of applications in research, drug discovery and environmental monitoring. BioAssay Systems' copper assay kit is designed to measure copper with no or minimal sample treatment. The improved method utilizes a chromogen that forms a colored complex specifically with copper ions. The intensity of the color, measured at 359nm, is directly proportional to copper concentration in the sample. The optimized formulation substantially reduces interference by substances in the raw samples.

Sensitive and accurate. Linear detection range 7 µg/dL (1.0 µM) to 300 µg/dL (47 µM) copper in 96-well plate assay.

Simple and high-throughput. The simple procedure can be readily automated as a high-throughput assay in 96-well plates for thousands of samples per day.

Improved reagent stability and versatility. The optimized formulation has greatly enhanced reagent and signal stability. Cuvet or 96-well plate assay.
