The eStain®2.0 Protein Staining System is based on GenScript’s
patent-pending electric staining technology.To use the eStain®2.0 Protein
Staining System for protein gel staining, assemble the eStain®Protein
Staining Pad with your pre-run gel on the eStain®2.0 Protein Staining Device.
Similar to semi-dry blotting, the eStain®Cathode Pad and eStain®Anode
Pad act as ion reservoirs with proprietary anode and cathode buffers. eStain®
Cathode Pad, presoaked with cathode buffer containing CBB dye R-250 or
G250, supplies negatively charged staining reagents. The voltage generated
between graphite anode and titanium cathode allows for rapid and directional
movement of negatively charged Coomassie blue dye into the gel matrix to
stain proteins as well as for the homogeneous movement of the unbound
staining reagents out of the gel matrix to destain the gel within only 7 minutes
or less. Therefore the eStain®2.0 Protein Staining System provides fast,
convenient and reliable in-gel protein staining without the need to prepare
additional buffers.

Introduction
System Overview
System Components The eStain®2.0 Protein Staining System consists of:
eStain®2.0 Protein Staining Device
The eStain®2.0 Protein Staining Device is a user-friendly electric staining unit that allows
for fast, convenient and efficient in-gel protein staining with Coomassie blue dye reagents.
eStain®Protein Staining Pads
The disposable eStain®Protein Staining Pads are used to perform electric staining of
proteins in gels with Coomassie blue dye. Two types of eStain®Protein Staining Pads,
R-250 and G-250, are available separately from GenScript and for different requirements.
Each pack of eStain®Protein Staining Pad contains an eStain®Cathode Pad presoaked
with proprietary cathode buffer containing CBB dye R-250 or G-250, and an eStain®
Anode Pad presoaked with proprietary anode buffer, allowing for rapid, convenient and
reliable in-gel protein staining without the need to prepare additional buffers.
The eStain®2.0 Protein Staining System, applying GenScript's patent-pending electric
staining technique, allows you to quickly, reliably and efficiently stain proteins in various
types of mini polyacrylamide gels with Coomassie blue dye. It consists of the eStain®2.0
Protein Staining Device and the eStain®Protein Staining Pads.The proprietary electric
staining technology of the eStain®2.0 Protein Staining Device combined with the eStain®
Protein Staining Pads applies a voltage generated between graphite anode and titanium
cathode to allow for quick and directional movement of negatively charged Coomassie
blue dye into the gel matrix to stain the proteins and also the homogeneous movement of
the unbound staining reagents out of the gel matrix to destain the gel matrix within only 7
minutes or less. The eStain®2.0 Protein Staining System integrates three steps of
conventional Coomassie blue staining method into a single one and greatly cuts down the
time required for protein staining analysis. The eStain®2.0 Protein Staining System is able
to deliver high detection sensitivity down to several ng per protein band, which is
comparable to the sensitivity of traditional method despite of their different working
principles.
