Revision17-September-2007 RFH
DescriptionAn ultrasensitive Coomassie-based reagent for staining polyacrylamide gels. No mixing or preparation is involved, no fixation step is needed, and no destaining is required. RAPIDstain™ Reagent stains only protein, within 5-10 min, and leaves a crystal-clear background with high resolution. Contain the following component:

• RAPIDstain™ 1 x 1 liter Suitable for 20 mini gels (8 x 10 cm) or 10 larger gels (12 x 15 cm)
FormLiquid
Recommended reaction conditions1. Wash gel three times in ultra-pure water, 5-10 min per wash. NOTE: • Use 100 ml for each 8 x 10 cm mini-gel. • Isoelectric focusing gels require pre-fixing in 20% TCA for 30 min, followed by extensive washing. 2. Discard all free water from the gel. Add RAPIDStain™ to cover the gel. Gently shake gel in stain for about an h. NOTE: • Protein bands will be visible within 10 min and reach maximum intensity within 1 h. Longer incubation periods will not increase the background. 3. Wash gel two to three times in deionized water. Washing enhances the staining of weak protein bands. Store gel in water. NOTE: • If background staining is noticed then it is indicative of residual SDS in gel. Rinsing the gel extensively in ultra-pure water will remove the background staining.
