Total protein stain for non-denaturing and denaturing 1D and 2D gel electrophoresis and blotting. The dye reversibly binds to lysine, arginine, and histidine residues in proteins and peptides to yield an intensely red-fluorescent product (ʎEx 518 nm, ʎEm 610 nm).
SERVA Purple HiSens shows highest sensitivity compared to most other protein stains. Even difficult to stain proteins as glycoproteins and lipoproteins can be accurately detected.

Although this modified version of SERVA Purple has a significantly increased sensitivity, its cost-effectiveness as against other fluorescence dyes or even silver staining is unchanged.

• Environmentally friendly, easy to use
• Sensitivity to as low as <20 pg/band
• Linear quantification over 4 orders of magnitude
• Compatible with MS, DIGE-labelling
• After imaging gel can be further processed by Western Blotting
