Product Description
Precision Plus Protein Kaleidoscope standards contain ten protein bands of 10, 15, 20, 25, 37, 50, 75, 100, 150, and 250 kD.
Recombinant prestained protein standards are carefully engineered for precise and accurate molecular weights. The staining process has been optimized to guarantee the same electrophoretic molecular weight with each lot. Traditional prestained proteins, on the other hand, are blended from naturally occurring proteins. They have an inherent variability in the amount and location of dye that covalently binds to the protein; this produces diffuse, broader bands than those of the recombinant prestained standards and the resulting molecular weights vary from lot to lot.
Molecular Weight Estimation
The molecular weights of Precision Plus Protein Kaleidoscope standards are confirmed by migration in a Laemmli SDS-PAGE system. Using Precision Plus Protein Kaleidoscope standards, the molecular weight of an unknown protein can be assessed at an accuracy of 95%. For electrophoretic determination of molecular weights at an accuracy of >95%, Precision Plus Protein Unstained standards (catalog #161-0363) should be used.
These standards are also compatible with the XT buffer system, but should only be used for molecular weight estimation. For molecular weight determination on XT gels, use the Precision Plus Protein Unstained or All Blue standards.
Instructions for Use
Precision Plus Protein Kaleidoscope standards are provided in loading buffer, ready to load, with no dilution required. Allow the tube to reach room temperature and thoroughly mix before use. This will ensure that any solids that may have precipitated have returned to solution. Do not heat the product above room temperature.
