We developed a candidate Reference Method for measuring total serum protein by use of the biuret reaction. The method involves a previously described biuret reagent (Clin. Chem. 21: 1159, 1975) and Standard Reference Material (SRM) 927 bovine albumin (National Bureau of Standards) as the standard. At 25 degrees C, color development for 30 or 60 min provides identical serum protein values. Glucose (up to 10 g/L) and bilirubin (up to 300 mg/L) do not interfere. Hemoglobin, at 3 g/L, increases apparent serum protein by 0.4 g/L. The presence of dextran in serum causes easily detected turbidity, but this interference can be eliminated by centrifuging the reaction mixture. Therapeutic concentrations of ampicillin, carbenicillin, penicillin, oxacillin, nafcillin, chloramphenicol, cephalothin, and methicillin in blood do not interfere, nor do triglycerides up to 10 g/L. Within-run and day-to-day standard deviations of the method are 0.1 and 0.4 g/L, respectively.
