GelCode Blue Stain Reagent is a ready-to-use protein stain based on colloidal coomassie dye G-250 that provides nanogram-level detection in polyacrylamide gels and for in-blot detection. This unique reagent stains only protein and allows bands to be viewed directly in the gel during the one-hour gel-staining process.

Features include:
• No methanol-acetic acid destaining required
• Fast, one-step, one-hour staining, ready-to-use stain reagent; band development visible directly in the staining tray; no background from overnight staining; flexible fixing and washing protocol; no gel shrinkage; stained gel can be dried
• Water wash increases staining sensitivity; optional step provides crystal-clear gel background and makes weakly stained bands more visible
GelCode Blue Stain Reagent stains only protein and allows bands to be viewed directly in the gel during the one-hour gel-staining process. Because the destaining step does not fix the protein, GelCode Blue Stain is compatible with mass spectrometry analysis and N-terminal sequence analysis.

For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
GelCode Blue Stain Reagent contains additives that help to slow down the formation of dye-dye and dye-protein aggregates, which form in all coomassie dye-based protein staining reagents. Nevertheless, if left undisturbed, the reagent will form visible dye-dye aggregates that settle in the bottom of the bottle. Fortunately, gently inverting or tipping-and-swirling the bottle several times completely disperses these aggregates. Therefore, it is good practice to mix the stain reagent before pouring or dispensing to ensure that a homogeneous sample of the reagent is used.
