ColorPlus™ Prestained Protein Marker, Broad Range (7-175 kDa)

This product is replaced by P7712.

Catalog # P7709 was discontinued on June 13, 2014 ;

Product Information
ColorPlus™ Prestained Protein Marker, Broad Range includes a mixture of purified proteins covalently coupled to colored dye that resolves to 8 bands of even intensity, including one orange and one green reference band for easy orientation when electrophoresed (1). The covalent coupling of the dye to the proteins affects their electrophoretic behavior in SDS-PAGE gels relative to unstained proteins (1). For precise molecular weight determinations, use NEB's unstained Protein Marker, Broad Range (NEB #P7702) or Protein Ladder (NEB #P7703) in addition to the prestained marker.

FAQs & Troubleshooting
- FAQs
  Is the ColorPlus Prestained Protein Marker stable at room temperature?
  
  After repeated freeze/thaws, I have noticed a fading or speading out of the low molecular weight bands in the ColorPlus Prestained Protein Marker. Is there any way to extend the shelf-life of this product?
  
  Why do the apparent molecular weight values for the prestained protein markers appear to be different in different gel types?
- Tech Tips
  
  Prestained proteins carry a charge because of the dye molecules bound to the protein. Because of this, any changes in the running conditions will alter their migration. These products should not be used for accurate molecular weight determination. The unstained markers and ladders are better for that. Prestained are best designed for western blot applications.
