Brilliant Blue G solution has been used for protein band detection after SDS-PAGE (sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis). It is also used for the protein staining of cells on microscopic slide.

General description

Brilliant Blue G is a methanol based stain which is especially designed for staining protein in polyacrylamide gels, but will also stain protein in agarose gels (IEF). The stain contains methanol and acetic acid so gels do not require fixing prior to staining. Water is added directly to the bottle to produce 1 liter of ready-to-use staining solution.
