Application

EZBlue^® Gel Staining Reagent has been used as a staining reagent in sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE).

Features and Benefits

Premixed solution eliminates the time and effort required to prepare the stain Increased sensitivity ensures that low abundance proteins can be detected (as little as 5 ng) Rapid reaction significantly reduces the amount of time required to stain and rinse No solvent waste so you save time and money by eliminating hazardous material disposal

General description

Convenient, sensitive, and safe, EZBlue^™ Coomassie Brilliant Blue G-250 colloidal protein stain improves protein electrophoresis results while significantly reducing staining time. Conveniently packaged, EZBlue requires no messy weigh-ups or additions of methanol or acid. As a colloidal stain, it reacts only with proteins, not the gel itself. Background staining is reduced, so protein bands can be visualized almost immediately. No destaining step is required, although a water wash may intensify bands and clarify the background. Most impressively, EZBlue is extremely sensitive, detecting as little as 5 ng of protein.
