A combined Coomassie blue-silver stain method has been developed in sodium dodecyl sulfatepolyacrylamide gels for the detection of proteins using the model compounds bovine serum albumin, lysozyme, and recombinant DNA-derived human insulin. Sensitivity was enhanced 2.2 to 8.6 times by the new method

The sensitivity, simplicity, and relative rapidity of Coomassie blue staining have made this technique the method of choice for routine detection and quantitative analysis of gel electrophoresis-separated protein bands in many applications. To extend the usefulness of this technique, we have develop
A method is described for extracting proteins and peptides from stained sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels. Coomassie blue and sodium dodecyl sulfate present in stained gel sections are removed to allow subsequent analysis of the peptides (e.g., amino acid analysis or tryptic digestion and f
A rapid and sensitive protein staining method employing a mixed dye technique has been developed. Solutions of Coomassie brilliant blue R-250 (CB, 0.2%) and Bismark brown R (BBR, 0.05%) were mixed in the volume ratio of 1:0.75 for staining (final molar ratio, 4.5:1). In this staining, BBR inhibits t
