AE-1360 EzStain Silver
Purpose and Application
- Detection of Protein and DNA
Features
- Silver staining kit — just dilute each reagent 100×
- Detection sensitivity: several ng of protein per band, several tens of ng of nucleic acid per band
- Staining time: approximately 60 minutes with a simple procedure
- Compatible with mass spectrometry (MS) analysis as it does not contain glutaraldehyde
