Colloidal Coomassie Blue G-250 staining (Blue silver staining)

5.1.2 Direct detection agents

2% H3PO4, 10% (NH4)2SO4, 20% methanol and 0.1% Coomassie G-250.

The preparation of the staining recipe (10 L) was by sequentially addition as follows: 235 ml of phosphoric acid (85%, w/v) was added to 2 L of distilled water; 1 kg of ammonium sulfate powder was added to 4 L of distilled water. After they were fully dissolved, phosphoric acid and ammonium sulfate solutions were combined and poured into the staining tank together with 1.5 L of distilled water. Ten grams of Coomassie Brilliant Blue G-250 were dissolved in 500 ml distilled water, and then added to staining tank. Two liters of methanol were not added to staining tank until the gel staining began.

5.1.3 Additional reagents and buffers

No additional reagents or buffer

Temperature: 22 °C.

Duration: 4 d.

Protocol:
The staining took place for 2-3 days, and gels were de-stained with distilled water until the background was clear (8-10 hours in most cases).
