Coomassie Blue Staining of proteins in SDS-PAGE gels is a daily procedure in many laboratories


  • Rapid: 15 minute, non-toxic, safe, 1-step stain. No organic solvents! No phosphoric acid!
  • Sensitive: 50 times more sensitive than other rapid stains. Lower limit is 5 ng protein standard.
  • Linear Range: Very low background enabling accurate quantitation of proteins.
  • High Resolution: Sharp protein bands that you would expect with traditional Coomassie stain.
  • Durable: Re-usable up to 3 times! This stain is also MS compatible.


Applications of Blue-Clean Stain: Hands off simple staining/destaining procedure and High sensitivity below 20 ng of protein per band.


It is very popular among life science researchers due to its good sensitivity and relative ease of use. Traditionally, coomassie blue staining requires a methanol and acetic acid solution to achieve staining and destaining. This process increases the risk for hazardous exposure and produces an unpleasant pungent odor. Blue-Clean Stain is a convenient alternative to traditional coomassie blue staining procedures. Environmentally friendly, this ready-to-use stain does not contain methanol or acetic acid, and does not require hazardous solvents for destaining. This simple "hands-off" staining/destaining procedure saves valuable time while reducing the handling of hazardous materials and solvent waste in your lab. Blue-Clean staining exhibits sensitivity below 20ng of protein per band. Packaged as a 1X ready-to-use solution, Blue-Clean Stain only requires water for the prewashing and destaining procedures.


Caution: Shelf Life: 1 year at room temperature. No precipitate forms over time, so no shaking required.
