Tested for suitability on agarose gels following immunoelectrophoresis.
Brilliant Blue R can be used for staining proteins on polyacrylamide electrophoresis gels. Improvement of sensitivity and background have been accomplished using Brilliant Blue dyes in a colloidal form. Other applications for brilliant Blue R include use in detection of lipids in thin layer chromatography, determination of the CMC of detergents, and detection of proteins in solution, as well as on cellulose acetate plates.
