Thermo Scientific™ Imperial™ Protein Stain
Shop All Thermo Scientific ProductsDescription
Thermo Scientific™ Imperial Protein Stain is a unique, ready-to-use colorimetric stain formulated with coomassie dye R-250 that delivers fast and sensitive total protein staining performance for low nanogram-level detection of proteins in polyacrylamide electrophoresis gels.
Highlights:
Sensitive – detects less than 3ng protein per band with the enhanced protocol (3 hours)
Fast – ready-to-use reagent detects less than 6ng protein per band in just 20 minutes
Robust – highly consistent, reproducible protein staining technique
High contrast – intense purple bands are easier to photograph or scan than typical coomassie blue stains
Versatile – compatible with downstream mass spectrometry analysis and protein sequencing
Convenient – water washes only; no acid-fixative or methanol destaining solutions required
Stable – 1-year room-temperature stability ensures consistent performance and saves refrigerator space
Flexible – adjust staining and washing times to meet time- and sensitivity-requirements
