Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis for Protein Analysis: A Technique to Separate and Visualize Proteins Based on Molecular Weight
成績單
Prepare two separating gels as described in the text manuscript. Pour the gel between the glass plates using a 1-milliliter pipette, ensuring that the upper 2 centimeters are free of the mixture. Add 70% ethanol on top of the separating gel, creating an even interface between the two layers.
Once the separating gels have polymerized, prepare the stacking gels using instructions in the text manuscript. Then, remove the ethanol from the separating gels, and add the stacking gel solution. Carefully insert a comb with the desired number of pockets, without introducing air bubbles, and allow the gel to polymerize for 20 to 30 minutes.
Load 4 microliters of each sample, as well as the protein ladder, into separate wells. Then, run the gel in Tris-Glycine running buffer at 144 volts for 45 minutes at room temperature. Use pre-warmed Fairbanks solution A to stain the gels on a rocker for 30 minutes, and pre-warmed Fairbanks solution D to decolor the gels on a rocker until the desired background is achieved.
