Silver staining is among the most sensitive and reliable techniques for detecting proteins, offering 10–100 times greater sensitivity than Coomassie Blue dyes. Due to its superior binding affinity and precision, silver staining has become the preferred method for applications requiring the detection of low-abundance proteins or subtle differences in protein expression.
The Silver Staining Kit from Proteogenixx is specifically designed for high-resolution protein visualization in polyacrylamide gels. Optimized for molecular biology and biochemistry research, the kit enables rapid and reproducible staining with minimal background interference, ensuring clear and accurate protein band detection.
The Silver Staining Kit provides researchers with a powerful and reliable tool for protein detection, enabling confident analysis in both basic research and commercial applications.
