Close-up of DNA ladders on an agarose gel. GelRed stain was used. Loading of a sample into a polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis well. An electrophoretic color marker is a chemical used to monitor the progress of agarose gel electrophoresis and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) since DNA, RNA, and most proteins are colourless.

Allura Red AC is a popular dye used worldwide. Annual production in 1980 was greater than 2.3 million kilograms. [5] It was introduced as a replacement for amaranth in the United States. [6] The European Union approved Allura Red AC as a food colorant in 1994, but EU countries' local laws banning food colorants were preserved. [7]
Xylene cyanol can be used as an electrophoretic color marker, or tracking dye, to monitor the process of agarose gel electrophoresis and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Bromophenol blue and orange G can also be used for this purpose. Once mixed with the sample, the concentration of xylene cyanol is typically about 0.005% to 0.03%.
FD&C Red No. 40, more commonly known as red 40, is making headlines again as lawmakers debate whether food dyes should remain legal in the United States. The dye, which has been registered with ...
Picture of an SDS-PAGE. The molecular markers (ladder) are in the left lane. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) is a technique widely used in biochemistry, forensic chemistry, genetics, molecular biology and biotechnology to separate biological macromolecules, usually proteins or nucleic acids, according to their electrophoretic mobility.
Bromophenol is also used as a colour marker to monitor the process of agarose gel electrophoresis and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.Since bromophenol blue carries a slight negative charge at moderate pH, it will migrate in the same direction as DNA or protein in a gel; the rate at which it migrates varies according to gel density and buffer composition, but in a typical 1% agarose gel in ...
Proteins separated by SDS-PAGE, Coomassie brilliant blue staining. Protein electrophoresis is a method for analysing the proteins in a fluid or an extract. The electrophoresis may be performed with a small volume of sample in a number of alternative ways with or without a supporting medium, namely agarose or polyacrylamide.
The three samples are mixed and loaded onto IEF (isoelectric focusing chromatography) for first dimension and the strip is transferred to a SDS PAGE.After the gel electrophoresis, the gel is scanned with the excitation wavelength of each dye one after the other, so each sample can be seen separately (if we scan the gel at the excitation wavelength of the Cy3 dye, we will see in the gel only ...
