Bio-Rad’s prestained standards are available
in high, low, and broad molecular weight
ranges. Blue dye has been covalently attached to
the standard proteins and will not be dissociated
by normal staining or destaining. The protein
mixtures are provided in a stable aqueous solu-
tion. No reconstitution or further dilution is
required before use.
Applications
Prestained SDS-PAGE Standards provide a
quick and easy way to assess the quality of an
electrophoretic transfer and act as a control in
repetitive blotting experiments. The visibility of
the standards makes it possible to monitor the
separation of proteins while electrophoresis is
in progress, even after the dye front has run off
the gel. The standards can also be used to locate
a protein for excision from an unstained prepar-
ative gel.
