LabSafe GEL Blue™ is an enhanced protein stain that is based on Coomassie dye that offers unsurpassed sensitivity and rapid band visualization. LabSafe GEL Blue™ is supplied in a ready-to-use format, which is added directly to protein gels following electrophoresis after a brief wash step.

LabSafe GEL Blue™ is a sensitive stain that is able to detect as little as 4ng protein (see figure 1 below). Protein bands are visible in as little as 3 minutes, with maximal staining achieved in an hour (see figure). The figure shows that LabSafe GEL Blue™ can detect protein levels as low as 4ng BSA. 60-1000ng BSA is detectable in 5-10 minutes and the low levels of BSA (4-8ng) become clearly visible when washed in water.
