Pierce™ Quantitative Peptide Assays are robust, mix-and-read microplate-based assays for sensitive and reproducible quantitation of peptide concentrations—ideal for LC/MS, LC-MS/MS, and other mass spectrometry workflows. The kits come in fluorescence or colorimetric detection formats, each including a validated peptide digest reference standard for reliable standard curve generation and normalization of experimental samples.
These assays are designed to overcome common limitations of traditional protein assays (e.g., BCA, Bradford) when applied to peptide mixtures, providing superior linearity, specificity, and compatibility with mass spectrometry reagents, including TMT-labels (colorimetric only).
