ABSTRACT:
A method for determining the redox status of a protein sample, the method comprising the steps of: a) contacting the sample with a first label adapted to bind to at least one reduced cysteine group therein; b) contacting the sample with a reducing agent to reduce at least one oxidized cysteine group therein; c) contacting the sample with a second label adapted to bind to any reduced cysteine groups produced in step (b); and d) determining the ratio of the signal from the first label to the signal from the second label wherein the ratio indicates the redox status.
