Abstract

In this study, it was investigated whether new dying matters are able to stain electrophoresis gels or not. For this purpose juglone, alizarin and lawson were used for gel staining. Blood proteins such as albumin, globulin, hemoglobin, and fibrinogen were used as SDS PAGE samples and after running, the polyacrylamide gels were stained with these dye solutions and compared with the coomassie blue stained gels. In conclusion, some of these dyes can be used for staining protein bands on polyacrylamide electrophoresis gels.
