usually if u google the title of a paper u can find it...

try searching google scholar... and if u are using a computer on campus you can use the 'get it at mac' option to get the paper for free

If you're also in Biochem, I think I know what you're talking about.

1. Use Google Scholar and type MM Bradford
2. Click the first article.
3. ???
4. Profit

yeah.. and if you're still not sure, it's the one published in may 1976 and has been cited around 150 000 times

but if you have problems using pubmed off campus, make sure you log in to LibAccess first then click the pubmed link on the mcmaster website. google libaccess if you cant find that.

Finding a primary original article isn't an issue of your search engine, it depends on the paper.
Using Google Scholar, Web of Science, PubMed, SciFinder will all give you the same papers. To find the primary original article you need to find the original article that the newer papers are citing which shouldn't be too hard if you take the time to read the paper.
Eg. if you're looking for the primary original article for the Bradford assay, then many many recent articles that used the Bradford assay will cite the original article (the one written by MM Bradford in 1970) when the assay was originally published.
What do they teach you kids in schools these days?

There's no easy way to it- you literally have to trace back through references in papers that use the technique to the original methods paper for it.
Felicia still making you guys find primary articles? Been there done that
