SDS PAGE Gel Electrophoresis
General Procedure
- Place gel cartridge in gel box with loading buffer
- Load samples
- Run the gel
- Place gel in DI water for one hour
- Remove water, add staining agent (GelCode Blue), leave on rocker overnight
- Remove GelCode Blue, add DI water. Refresh DI water every hour until gel bands are visible
SDS PAGE Gel Buffer Information
4X Loading Buffer
- 2.0 ml 1M Tris-HCl pH 6.8
- 0.8 g SDS
- 4.0 ml 100% glycerol
- 0.4 ml 14.7 M β-mercaptoethanol
- 1.0 ml 0.5 M EDTA
- 8 mg bromophenol Blue
10X Running Buffer
- 288 g glycine
- 60.4 g Tris base
- 20 g SDS
- 1.8 L H2O
- Take protein sample, add Loading Buffer. Boil at 95 degrees Celsius for ten minutes
- Remove premade gel cartridge from package, remove comb, rinse wells with DI water
- Insert cartridge into gel box, add running buffer to top and bottom wells
- Add samples into separate wells, along with a protein ladder.
- Run gel at 200V for around one hour
Equipment Necessary
- Power Supply
- SDS-PAGE Gel Box
- SDS-PAGE Gel Cartridge
